What We Admire About Hector

    We're a video production company committed to telling better stories to build a better world. We're also interested in examining the stories we tell about each other, and about ourselves. Hector is our Lead Editor, he makes all our work look and sound spectacular in the post production phase. In this piece our team expresses what we admire about Hector.


    Kyle: I think I'd most admire about Hector, he's just a kick-ass editor.


    Ray: I think Hector is hilarious.


    David: Hector, I actually admire Hector's just whole vibe of being still.


    Sarah: I love your stillness. You have this quiet strength about you.


    Ray: Hector may not make necessarily the biggest splash, but the little things that if you're paying attention, that Hector just slips into the conversation. If you're not paying attention, it goes, if you're there, it's just the funniest things ever.


    Kyle: I'm still getting to know him personally, but professionally, yeah, he's a really solid editor and a hell of a colorist.


    Ray: Hector is also just like talented.


    Sarah: You seem to just, you know, enjoy what you do and you're just very helpful.


    David: Not trying to draw attention to himself, I think he's legitimately trying to do good work. And to be kind of like just humble and quiet and still in a world that's pretty noisy is, I think, an admirable quality.

    How To Deal With Interview Nerves



      Dun dun dun. You just got an email from the marketing director and they told you you're gonna be in an interview. Dear in Headlight's moment, you're panicked. And I get it, because being in an interview can be intimidating. It can seem like this big tall task. And we experience that all the time. It's a very normal reaction. And people's fears are usually rooted in two things. One, that they feel like they're gonna be unprepared or they're not gonna know what to say. Two, that they feel like they're gonna mess up whatever they are gonna send. They're not gonna be able to actually perform in the moment. An interview is not a performance. An interview is a conversation. And the quality of the interview is on the interviewer, not you, the interviewee. So the interviewer should take care of you. They should help you feel comfortable. They should help you shine in your moment. And so we see people come with those fears. They've done two things. They've pre-written so many answers. They are like locked into whatever they're gonna say. And it's not a conversation anymore. It's a performance. And second of all, they're panicking about every little word. They miss an and or a but in the speech that they've memorized. Ultimately, that doesn't help. If you've been selected and somebody said, "You should show up and be on camera." It's because you know what you're talking about. It's either your professional experience, your personal experience, your expertise. You're gonna know. Let the editor do their job. Let the director do their job. They're gonna help find the moments, the good moments. They're gonna edit out all the little ums and ahs. And they're gonna clean it all up. That's our job. Our job is to take care of you. If you're getting interviewed for the brand video for your company, deep breath,

      and realize that if your interviewer and your production company are good, they got your back. We're gonna take care of you.
