Notes
- “Watch every frame of raw footage at least twice, then start”
- First time just watch the film, second time take notes
- Have a good relationship with the director to be able to collaborate
- Editor is the “secondary person in the relationship”; listen to what the director wants and help problem solve and give suggestions
- “Get the intent of the film early”
- Be organized!
- Account extra time for “renders, exports, errors, and crashes”
- Attempting edits that “shouldn’t work” can result in success
- Pay close attention to audio because it has a huge impact on the film
- Have a macro and micro view of the film “at all times”
