Congratulations David! What editing software will you be using?

Richly deserved! The best talent for a great job. *clap clap clap clap…*

@iconjohn Thanks Strictly tape to tape linear right now. I’ll be editing on Avid systems that are coming in the near future.

Thanks Robert! It certainly has been a learning experience in my short time there.

Congrats David!!

Congratulations David, and good luck in your new career!

Congratulations and best of luck at the new gig. Hope it goes well for you. I was happy to hear that your supervisor at Mediacom was decent about everything. You have to go after your dream gig, but I’m sure a part of you cringed just a little bit at leaving with no notice. That said onward and upward!

Congrats again! You are so awesome - what a great story! And I’m so jealous that you are working at the old WMT tv station. I remember going there as a little girl to be on Dr. Max and Mombo. So cool!

Trying to fathom the symbolism of going from installing TV to editing it. While vlogging the transition. I don’t know… it feels kinda deep somehow. And I haven’t even been smoking.
Great that your supervisor was cool about it.
It’s all too cool. At last! Hurray!

Congrats David! That’s awesome you’re doing something that you like to do. I am jealous!

Yay. Well done. A vlog-supportive career, I’m assuming?

Congratulations David! Definitely deserved…glad to hear all your hard work has come to fruition We’re all cheering for you here in Canada!

Wow - always too cool to land your dream job. Congrats!

You really are in a free country, full of opportunities. Well done, glad to see you happy
BTW… any dress codes at CBS? Haircut? Beard?

Thanks everyone for the congrats!

@gogen No dress code at all. Long hair, short hair, jeans, shorts, beard. What ever you are comfortable with

very cool, david! i am truly happy for you. i know you have taken some risks in recent times but i think we all knew that opportunity would find you, accordingly.

enjoy!

Good for you. Congratulations!!

Awesome, congrats on getting your dream job!

Congratulations! Very cool!

Congrats David!

That’s very good and i am sure it will motivate even more to continue to vlog more and more each day.
Really happy that you end up doing what you really like to do and off course know how to do well.

David - This rocks. Now, get busy. We want the story, my friend.

Awesome on the new gig! Congrats!
Gotta love it when things come together like that!

Congrats David! I’m happy for you! That’s really cool…

Ok, so I am a little late to the party, but HUZZAH all the same! That is so cool, and doubly so if it came out of vlogging. That just proves all the more that this stuff is for “real” (but we already knew that).

Unless I’ve missed prior tweets/posts…I am curious, how did it play out? How did they find you?

Also, I can’t believe you’re using linear tape to tape to edit! I didn’t think anyone still did that. How is it?

Back in 2002 I edited a few short films on a Steinbeck flatbed…actually splicing and taping film together. I’m really glad that I got to do that, just to have that grounding in a lost art form.

congrats man that is awesome!!!
