Got a behind-the-scenes peek at a @bias design workflow today. 😮

Cool to get a real-time glimpse of part of your design process and thinking! 

Seems like design work and copy editing have something in common: most people just see the finished work and rarely think about how much care and effort are required behind the scenes to make things worthy of being called art.

I've seen audio and vidoe editors on YT, but I haven't yet searched for literary editors talking about the deeper levels of their thought process and craft. If they're out there (and it seems like they must be, since YT is vast), I'd be curious to see how they manage to make their process interesting enough for video!

There’s so much in common with the iterative processes involved, especially if the creator is invested/convicted in their cause and purposes, it makes some sense that there are parallels.

It’s awesome to hear about the experience though and makes me curious about the other way around, makes me wonder if there are editor YouTubers and that out there, most likely there are but I’d have never been curious enough previously to check it but now i think i may

Thank you for the compliments! 🥹

For example, once in awhile I get asked to "just give the text a quick skim."

Uhhh... that's not how professional editing works... 😄
