A Few SIMPLE TIPS For Becoming a BETTER EDITOR! - Friday 101
This week, Russell does his first "Chopping Block" segment, dissecting two movies submitted by viewers to illustrate a few simple tips that can help you improve as an editor: Dialogue Overlap, Cutting the Fat, and "Killing Your Babies" (Not literally, it's a film term. I swear!) If you have a question, are seeking advice (FILMMAKING advice, Russ is NOT, in fact, a licensed therapist), or were just wondering about anything at all film or video related, send an email to: FRIDAY101MAIL@Gmail.com Even quick, simple questions will do. Have something to add to any of the topics we discussed on this episode? Send us a video response, or a Youtube link via email, and record yourself weighing in! If we like it, we'll add it to the links at the end of the episode! If you have made a movie and want advice as to how it could be better, send a Youtube link, listed or unlisted, to: FRIDAY101MAIL@Gmail.com and let Russell know you want your movie put on THE CHOPPING BLOCK!
