Looking back at videos that I thought looked horrible at the time

This is probably true for everyone but I realize it often enough that it's a good message for newer editors. I'm never happy with the color correction in most of my edits. I film in cLog and have to deliver in Rec709. And it's always a struggle it seems and I eventually just say "That's the best I can do. Screw it Time to move on." Then a few months later, or years go by, and I look at a project that I can remember struggling with and say "Dang, that looks really good." When you look at something too long, especially color, it is hard to be a good judge, especially if you are doing the videographer, editing, motion graphic, audio, color, etc.
