Listen "Captain Marvel"
Episode Synopsis
We celebrate Women's History Month here on The Rough Cut by shining the spotlight on Marvel-ous editor Debbie Berman ACE, who helped bring Captain Marvel to life. Recorded in front of a live audience, Debbie talks to us about the perseverance and persistence it took to get to where she is today..."It's really a competitive industry. One of my mentors, Dan Lebental, was working on Spider-Man and he put my name forward. And it was tough. I mean, there were a lot of "no's". A LOT of "no's". And the way I just sort of had it in my head is, "no" is just an annoying part of the conversation. And while everyone was saying "no" to me, I was saying, "This is so great! We're talking about me working on Spider-Man! And yeah, you're saying 'no', but that's just one part of the conversation. The bigger picture here is we're talking about me working on Spider-Man!" She also shares some key advice on how to get your name out there for the jobs you really want..."I have a rule that I don't ever ask for jobs. I find, especially when you work with people who are higher up in the industry, that people are constantly asking them for things. And I didn't want to put myself in that category. So one tool I always use is, I always state what I want and let the people who can help me know what I want. And then it's their decision if they want to help me." Hear all of that and more in our interview with Captain Marvel editor, Debbie Berman! Read the full transcript of the interview here. Download your free Avid Media Composer | First NLE today!
