November Lecture - Cutting Rhythms, shaping stories

Few aspects of creative filmmaking are as shrouded in mystery as the work of the film editor, who will usually say their art is intuitive. Karen Pearlman puts forward the idea that editing is a form of choreography.  She shows how editors shape movement – of story, of emotion, of image and of sound, into moving experiences for an audience.  Clips from Pearlman’s award-winning films are woven into this story of how cuts work, where they are hidden, why they are made the way they are, and who is behind the good ideas that come out in the editing process.
