You never know when you'll draw upon the skills you acquire over your lifetime. I learned how to edit video tape in high school while working on a weekly local news program. In college I specialized in documentary film production and spent hours in the editing suites. This experience really came in handy when I decided to become a full-time translator, in fact, my clients have often applauded my sense of timing and rhythm, which makes my subtitles seem like they are simply part of the film.
