Listen "What the Heck is an Editing Macro?"
Episode Synopsis
Did you read this episode title and immediately check out? Trust me, I get it, but I’m here to change your mind about macros.I came late to the game on macros because of several limiting beliefs that held me back. I didn’t think I was tech-savvy enough to use them, so I wrote them off for a long time. Now that I’ve started using them, I can confidently say that macros have saved me tons of time as an editor. I’m still a baby user, but macros have positively impacted my editing in such a short time that I feel like I have to shout it from the rooftops. If you’ve never used macros before and think they aren’t your thing, this episode is for you.Important Sections(1:45) What are Macros?
