#222 - Cut/daily Meets... Editor Brad Conlin

Editor Brad Conlin is the finishing editor for James Corden's daily talk show; The Late Late Show.

That means he has to hit a tight turn-around deadline, with no wiggle room, every single day.

What I loved about Brad's answers is the motif of an encouraging/releasing spirit;

• It pays to ask for advice!
• Don't be afraid to ask for help.
• Just say yes... even if you don't know it all (you'll learn!)
• Just edit.
• You don't need anyone's permission to do this!

My biggest takeaway from what Brad generously shares in his answers below?

I wish I had sought more advice from other editors who do these kinds of shows, so I could ask for the right kind of help, and anticipate some of the challenges for a long-running show.

As well as being an Emmy-nominated editor he's also an animator and visual artist, and you can check out some of his art here.
