First of all, using the term "movie editor" can be pretty ambiguous. It really all depends on the type of project the editor is working on. Obviously, big budget Hollywood film editors earn substantially more than lets say an editor working on a low budget independent film.

Our industry is mostly freelance, meaning the editor is usually compensated based on his or her artistic and technical proficiency. I can say that the average post production employee in Los Angeles earns about 65k a year. Again, this can vary greatly.

The Editors Guild Website has a lot more information on Union weekly rates for all kinds of post production positions.

A current TV Editor working on a Union show is guaranteed a minimum of about 2,800.00

Obviously a film Editor working on a Union Film will almost certainly make more but this gives you an idea
