lancecarr12 's List: This Week's Picks

This is an absolutely fabulous video from Casey Faris for this week which is a bit of a "step back" tutorial on learning to edit.

By "step back" I mean not focusing on the overall task of video editing but rather identifying small individual skills that comprise the overall.

He describes the way most people learn editing in a way that really makes sense to me be calling it "reactive learning."

That means you start a project and as you need to do something you work out how to do it as a reaction to that need.

Although for most people this gets them over the initial hump they encountered at the same time it fails to deliver a solid learning experience.

The result is the next time they encounter that same problem, they are stuck again.
