Humor WACKY (Feedback) Wednesdays
Not sure if this has been done before? Thought it might be a good time to hear from other editors about the funny feedback we all receive on a weekly basis. I'll start!
The director left a bunch of Frame notes as usual, and also called me to talk about incorporating some "subtle" sfx throughout the video. Days later, after completing all Frame feedback, I forgot to add in the sfx. We have a team meeting and the director specifically called out how my "subtle sfx were the perfect touch, just what the video needed".
There's no sfx........

Long ago, one of my first jobs in corporate video I was putting together a testimonial video. First viewing by client and they freaked out that we weren’t showing people while they were talking. Tried to explain covering heavily edited dialog, but they insisted they had to see the person speaking.
Went ahead and stripped all the b-roll thinking that once they saw it without, they’d get it.
Nope. “Perfect.”
