I am doing this article, which gives tips as how to become a better editor. The article gives a few ways that will help any editor become better. The first thing that the article tells is to have a comfortable editing room. If you are in a room that is 90 degrees and has no air circulation, then it will make the editing process that much harder. As long as you have some sort of cool air in the room then you and your equipment will not over heat. Chairs, tables, desks and mouses are also important to have in a good editing room, if you have that then you will have no problem staying in the room for long times. The article also tells you to have the room look like a editing room, so paint the walls black and cover the windows, it will make it more professional. The next important part to becoming a good editor is to network yourself. People know who you are and what you are editing is very important to getting your name know. The article suggest that you join a business networking group. The article’s next point is keeping motivated and getting into a routine that will help you get as much editing done. Mentors will help with motivation and might even give you jobs. Watching movies is also a good way to get a grasp on editing. The last point the article talks about is get as much training as you can from the pros. The more training you get the better you will be.
This was a good article and I think that if the students in this class are able to do most of the things this article suggested then Winthrop will have good editors able of doing a wide variety of projects.
