A button monkey, also known as a button pusher, is an industry term for editors who struggle to come up with creative ideas. The best editors possess five key traits: curiosity, collaboration, humility, brilliance, and compassion. Curiosity can be developed by exploring new techniques, experimenting with different styles, seeking inspiration from other video editors, asking questions, being open to feedback, and continuously learning. Video editors should always be open to learning and trying new things to develop new skills and techniques that can enhance their editing abilities. Experimenting with different styles and editing techniques can spark creativity and curiosity. Seeking inspiration from other video editors can teach new ways to approach editing and expand the knowledge of the craft. Great storytelling skills can help editors avoid being labeled as a button pusher.
