How do film editors work this kind of magic? This fascinating program lets you in on the secrets. 'What makes a movie a movie is the editing' says Zach Staenberg Academy Award-winning* editor of the Matrix trilogy. Closeups flashbacks parallel action slow motion juxtaposition of images - these are just a few tools that make clips from Birth of a Nation to Pulp Fiction The Battleship Potemkin to Gladiator indelible. Narrated by Kathy Bates and with interviews of a who's who of contemporary directors and editors The Cutting Edge: The Magic of Movie Editing is shot for shot and frame after frame reel magic.Running Time: 99 min.System Requirements:Running Time 99 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/MISC. Rating: NR UPC: 012569714298 'Editing is what makes film a film.' That audacious statement is made at the beginning of this 2005 documentary about the art of film editing. After listening to many editors and directors, movie novices as well as cinephiles may agree. Kathy Bates narrates this whirlwind history of the art punctuated by dozens of scenes to illustrate the effect of film editing in heightening reality and making a visceral impact on the filmgoer. In fact, the profession seems to be run on 'a gut feeling' whether it's clipping a few frames, or 20 minutes of the final act (which we learn happened with Lenny). James Cameron illustrates the importance of a frame as we see a scene from Terminator 2 with 1 frame out 24 missing (24 frames representing one second of film). Or as Quentin Tarantino states, 'musicians have notes, editors have frames.' It's fascinating to see how editing--the process of assembling the film after it's been shot--can save films, make performances better, and become the ultimate jigsaw puzzle. The last concept is demonstrated as we return time and again to the most well-known editor of the time, Walter Murch (Apocalypse Now, The English Patient), as he edits a few scenes from Cold Mountain in front of us. We see how he works with light, covers mistakes, and controls emotion. For those who wished for a sequel to the excellent documentary on cinematographers, Visions of Light (1993), here's the next step (although made by different folks including first-time director Wendy Apple). Now, anyone want to tackle art directors? --Doug Thomas Customers who bought this item also bought Visions of Light: The Art of Cinematography A Personal Journey With Martin Scorsese Through American Movies In the Blink of an Eye Revised 2nd Edition The Conversations: Walter Murch and the Art of Editing Film Cinematic Storytelling: The 100 Most Powerful Film Conventions Every Filmmaker Must Know Customer Reviews for: The Cutting Edge - The Magic of Movie Editing Rating - A Motion Picture Editors Delight This is an Excellent review of film editing, it's history, techniques and a few of the main contributors in the industry over the years. If you love the art & craft of film / video editing, you'll love this. This is to Film Editing, what Visions of Light is to Cinematography. Yes.........it's worth it! Rating - A good way to learn the craft This film is a great way to see much of the work that goes into the editing side of movie making. From looking at what happens when bad edits are made to seeing Jim Cameron show what would happen if he just made 1 frame subtractions to shorten a movie. It covers many ways of editing from the do it yourself type at home to using Final Cut to make cold Mountain and being completely digital in production. a who's who of directors talking about their editors. A must own for anyone who aspires to make a movie. Rating - Excellent I first saw this video in class. It is an excellent video for those who are interested in being in the film industry. I liked it so much I had to buy it to add to our collection at home. Rating - very good teaching aid The DVD is very good teaching material. It presents the evolution of editing with relevant examples. I recommend it without hesitation for anyone who wants to get familiar with the basics of editing. Rating - Movie editors come out of the closet This documentary is a general overview of how film cutters evolved into film editors and took their place among the giants of the film industry. We are introduced to methods and philosophies used down through the ages and the metamorphosis from celluloid to digital recordings. As informative as this documentary is it suffers from sound-bite-itus instead of concentrating on one person or thought, we are leaped back and forth trough a collage of people, techniques, and time.
