  • What a weekend! We had the honour of delivering the 2025 1st Assistant Editor stepping up session for ScreenSkills led by the incredible Jack Brown BFE! Four days of in-depth training on the skills and responsibilities of a 1st AE, delivered in the heart of Gorilla—giving a realistic insight into what it takes to support the edit, the editor, and the production team. We were also lucky to have had an amazing cohort here in Cardiff. Next up: Bristol and London—we’re raring to go! #avid #mediacomposer #screenskills #hetv #assistanteditor
