editing

"I don't edit."

An unfortunate thing to have to say....I need to learn how to use final cut...at least the basics because I want to be able to jump in and help out with my projects in the editing lab. And animation too if I produce an animation.

It's too easy to say "that's not my thing" but it's silly to be in school for a discipline and rule out portions of it just because you haven't learned yet. It's not too late. How do you think people know how to edit well now? Because they learned like a year or two ago! So I am making a decision to learn when I have free time over the quarter so I don't regret a skill that is available for me.

"I want to learn to edit..."

...that sounds much better
