Edit Quotes

There are not that many people who know how to edit. It’s a funny tiny little obscure talent but it’s very special. You have to have the feeling of popular taste Picture Quote #1

Now is a very interesting time because of the digital cameras, and the fact that you can edit anywhere. It’s a great time to be a filmmaker, is a great time to be starting off Picture Quote #1

With multimedia, everything blurs. Software takes the concept of the imagination and makes it something you can edit, tweak, and transform with digital techniques. Everything becomes an edited file Picture Quote #1

It’s a lot of power to give the director to edit his own stuff. It’s also a time thing: you don’t want to have to wait for the guy to finish shooting before he starts editing Picture Quote #1

I can edit into infinity. It’s such a joy. I’d probably edit until the last word. Until there’s only one word left Picture Quote #1

I can tell when an actor’s forcing tears, and it’s tricky because you then have to film it and edit in a certain way to skirt around the issue Picture Quote #1

Women are like internet viruses they enter your life, scan your pocket, edit your mind, download their problems, delete your smile Picture Quote #1

I’d always rather stand or fall on my own mistakes. There’s nothing worse than looking back, in a published book, at a line edit or a copy edit that you felt queasy about and didn’t want to take, but took anyway Picture Quote #1

We usually start by asking the collaborators to submit a couple of ideas. Then, Larry and I will sort through all the submissions and choose the ones based on what we think will add most to the collection. Once the scripts are written, the stages are: rehearse, record, edit, sound design, foley and finally, the mix Picture Quote #1

I get so carried away in interviews and deliver 1,500-word treatises, then find it’s been reduced to something pithier but also not quite accurate. Although I imagine there are people I work with who wish they could edit me every day Picture Quote #1

To design is much more than simply to assemble, to order, or even to edit: it is to add value and meaning, to illuminate, to simplify, to clarify, to modify, to dignify, to dramatize, to persuade, and perhaps even to amuse. To design is to transform prose into poetry Picture Quote #1

I was trying to see if I could produce an episode - completely write it and research it and record it and edit it - all by myself in a week Picture Quote #1

I really have to edit myself - I need someone with a censor button around me all the time. I’m just a little unaware of what’s deemed appropriate Picture Quote #1

I film quite a bit of footage, then edit. Changes before your eyes, things you can do and things you can’t. My attitude is always ‘let it keep rolling.’ Picture Quote #1

Computers absolutely changed my life. Before I had a computer, I had never written one thing. Not one thing. I’m a very bad speller and I was embarrassed by that. When I would type, the little mistakes would make me nutty, and I would never edit anything Picture Quote #1

When you finally start to write something, do not let yourself stop...even when you are convinced it’s the worst garbage ever. This is the biggest caveat for beginning writers. Instead, force yourself to finish what you began, and THEN go back and edit it Picture Quote #1

The sublime moment seems to be only a product of allowing yourself to get through, to get to a lot of stuff in your life, write about a lot of stuff and not edit yourself. That is a great lesson to learn for anybody that writes or creates in anyway, to be able to make something without being good or bad Picture Quote #1

You should write, write, write every day, and learn to edit and pare it right back so you’re proud of every sentence, and each one is either being useful or beautiful, but hopefully both Picture Quote #1

A movie is a creative process from its conception, through its writing, to its execution, to the editing. I think with the best films there is some kind of contribution from one person all the way through that. The best films are made by people who write, direct, and edit, so there’s continuity Picture Quote #1

With an independent movie, it’s like, ‘Okay I know what I want, and I got to go for it.’ I just got to get the A version of this. Occasionally we’ll try a B version, but not often. We’ll just get what’s scripted and try to do that as best we can, so you sort of edit while you shoot an independent movie Picture Quote #1

I am atheist in a very religious mould. I’m always asking myself the big questions. Where did we come from? Is there a meaning to all of this? When I find myself in church, I edit the hymns as I sing them Picture Quote #1

You might not write well every day, but you can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in writer’s block. Most of writer’s block is having too much time on your hands. My mantra is that you can always edit a bad page; you can’t edit a blank page Picture Quote #1

Don’t look back until you’ve written an entire draft, just begin each day from the last sentence you wrote the preceding day. This prevents those cringing feelings, and means that you have a substantial body of work before you get down to the real work which is all in ... the edit Picture Quote #1

I feel sorry for people who have to edit me. Which is why book writing is by far the most enjoyable. Really the only thing it’s based on is whether it’s good or not. No book editor, in my experience, is getting a manuscript and try to rewrite it Picture Quote #1

I believe every editor should stand to edit. That’s just my particular soapbox. Some things are so delicate and depend on such fine, delicate work. One frame in one direction or another can make such a difference and it is, in that, like brain surgery Picture Quote #1

I edit as I write. I revise endlessly. I don’t go forward until I know that what I’ve written is as good as I can make it Picture Quote #1

There’s editing, and scripts to read and edit, and casting, and all the elements of production that just sort of take up the normal downtime that you would have as an actor. So there’s not a lot of that for me Picture Quote #1

We are still vulnerable to gender-targeted marketing no matter how carefully we edit our children’s bookshelves Picture Quote #1

I’m in awe of directors like the Coen brothers who can shoot their script and edit it, and that’s the movie. They’re not discovering the movie in postproduction. They’re editing the script they shot Picture Quote #1
