I say:
You had to go there, eh Park?!? ;) Geez, I've been close to
getting a statue a couple of times, but you'd think with all the big
productions I've had the opportunity to work on, I'd have one by now.
But no, unfortunately I don't.
I edited 'Sesame Street' at Reeves/Teletape and later at Unitel on
and off for a couple of years, but did I win? No, that honor went to
another editor who (in my opinion) was simply lucky enough to be
working the nominated episode. It was a luck-of-the-draw situation
and I happened to come up short. The two of us edited the same work
on a somewhat regular basis. I trained her to edit 'SS'.
In another similar occasion, I edited ESPN graphic openings for ML
Baseball at Unitel along with another editor. Guess who won? Not
me. We did the SAME WORK, alternating weeks. I could go on, but it's
just getting annoying.
