Hello fellow film industry abandoner! I never went to film school, but I did briefly join the editors union in LA prior to the industry imploding shortly after lockdowns in LA. I switched to contract commercial work and, while it's been far more soul-sucking, at least it pays the bills. I no longer live in an industry city, so I've been trying to find my footing in a career that doesn't treat (and pay) a former union editor like a youtube editor (no hate on youtube editors, that work seems extremely tedious and they deserve to be paid more). But maybe I'll just break down and become an electrician if my client work ever slows down.
