how long should it take to edit a 20 minute short?
I know this isn't really a technical question but I figured their would be enough experts here to give me their 2 cents. So....
I have an editor who I fear is taking advantage of me.
The trouble is, I've already paid him 90% of his pay, and he is only half way done editing a short film with a runtime of 20 minutes or so. We have about 120 gigs of 1080p footage we shot.
I've been screwed over in the past by VFX people who kept stalling, then never got it done so i'm wondering, is this unusual for an edit of a short film to take 3 months? Because at the rate we are going that's how long it will take. Not to mention I have the same guy doing the sound edit as well...
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
