Emmy Award-winning Video Editor

So... 😂 My experience in the Video industry has been that I'm 1 professional who works with a bunch of other professionals and each one of us are specialists in our particular craft. 🦸♀️🦸♂️ I never edited actual film. By the time I started editing, everything that was filmed (into the can) was sent TO PROFESSIONALS to be placed onto TAPE to be sent for POST-PRODUCTION so we could edit it. Therefore, I've never heard of these errors because this is SPECIFICALLY what PROFESSIONALS were being PAID to ensure doesn't happen! 😂 Why would you pay somebody to hand you faulty tapes where the audio is out of sync? 🤔🤪 So SOMEBODY along this production line doesn't know what they're doing. 🕵️♂️ If you don't know what you're doing, don't film audio separately from video. Also, if you're an Editor, don't accept work from Videographers who don't know what they're doing. Typically, I'll receive (for unscripted television series) video recorded with 8 channels of audio, and also 4 redundant channels of audio recorded by itself without video. I've never had a drift issue like what the poster describes, but if I did, oh well 🤷♂️ sucks to be you and now you have to sync everything yourself. If YOU AGREED to edit this program without checking whether the PRODUCTION TEAM knew what they were doing, that's YOUR FAULT and now YOU have to deal with it.
