The March 2009 Editors' Lounge was a very special event featuring a moderated discussion with a panel of distinguished editors. Editors representing all the major fields of their craft from film to reality television to online editing and more, were on hand to discuss the paths they took to become the editors they are today and talk about the craft of editing. The overflow crowd had the oppurtunity to ask questions afterwards. The discussion panel included 2-time Oscar™ nominated film editor, Billy Weber, seasoned finishing editor and colorist, Terence Curren, veteran reality-television editor, Glenn Morgan, and Emmy™ nominated trailer editor, Carol Streit. The discussion was deftly moderated by Debra Kaufman of MobilizedTV.com. Editing Careers Part 1 from Editors' Lounge on Vimeo . Editing Careers Part 2 from Editors' Lounge on Vimeo .
