Editing Quotes

I record all of my music with authentic instruments in a studio before we start editing, doing many, many versions. The music shapes the film as we edit so it has an organic relationship to the content Picture Quote #1

I wish my life were a movie and I could take it into the editing room and totally cut this part out. And some other parts. Some other parts definitely need to be cut Picture Quote #1

We're so quick to cut away pieces of ourselves to suit a particular relationship, a job, a circle of friends, incessantly editing who we are until we fit in Picture Quote #1

I don’t listen to music when I’m writing, but I often do when I’m reworking, editing or when I need to relax Picture Quote #1

A lot of young filmmakers bring their movies to my dad because he always gives lots of good editing ideas and notes. He’d be a good film professor Picture Quote #1

Film editing is now something almost everyone can do at a simple level and enjoy it, but to take it to a higher level requires the same dedication and persistence that any art form does Picture Quote #1

This applies to many film jobs, not just editing: half the job is doing the job, and the other half is finding ways to get along with people and tuning yourself in to the delicacy of the situation Picture Quote #1

I’m a writer first and an editor second... or maybe third or even fourth. Successful editing requires a very specific set of skills, and I don’t claim to have all of them at my command 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

I work eight hours a day, but I’m not writing all that time. I’m thinking, editing, looking something up. Thinking is what I do a lot of Picture Quote #1

In the editing room, 20 percent of the time you’re using stuff from before the actor knew the camera was rolling or you’re taking a line from somewhere else and putting it in his mouth Picture Quote #1

All you’re trying to do in an improvisation is get as much material as possible for the editing room Picture Quote #1

You can’t act for the editing. You just go in and do the scene the way you think is right Picture Quote #1

If you’re working on a computer and you’re editing bass, it looks like a warm curvy, sort of feminine object Picture Quote #1

Objectivity can only be the author’s and therefore subjective, even if he is editing a newsreel Picture Quote #1

My goal is to strip things down so that you need just the right amount of words or shape to convey what you need to convey. I like editing. I like it very tight Picture Quote #1

A harsh reality of newspaper editing is that the deadlines don’t allow for the polish that you expect in books or even magazines Picture Quote #1

If any sort of error is inexcusable, it’s an incorrect phone number. One of the cardinal rules of copy editing is that every phone number published must be checked Picture Quote #1

You have to edit the material. That assumes that some kind of a mind is operating in relation to the material. Not all minds are the same. Every aspect of filmmaking requires choice. The selection of the subject, the shooting, editing and length are all aspects of choice Picture Quote #1

I love being on stage if I’m not on a set. If I’m at home, I’m usually in my office editing or reconstructing my website or whatever it may be. I just love putting creativity into a performance, so if the right script comes along, and I certainly am reading comedies and dramas now, then I’m ready willing and able to give it a shot Picture Quote #1

Unfortunately, I am very aware of editing and I look at the monitor too much. Sometimes the monitor can become your worst enemy because you can, consciously or unconsciously, start editing yourself Picture Quote #1

Music is where I have the most creative freedom, but I love producing. To me, that’s kind of where all the action is. You get a chance to have your hands in every aspect of a film. From picking a director, sometimes picking a writer, to the actors, the wardrobe, set design, editing, music, and marketing Picture Quote #1

Editing is not a part of the filmmaking process I’ve ever been privy to as an actress Picture Quote #1

You never know what you do that could be totally out of left field, which actually might work and give something fresh to the whole scene, to the character, whatever. If you have that with a director who then knows how to shape it, either in the direction, in the moment, or in the editing, then that’s good Picture Quote #1

I definitely in filmmaking more and more find writing and directing a means to harvest material for editing. It’s all about editing Picture Quote #1

I’m really specific in the way that I shoot. I’ve always had a very good sense of what I need in the editing room. I used to shoot in a way that drew more attention to the camera and I’ve tried, in each film, to draw less and less attention to the camera. I think when you pay attention to the shots, you’re aware of the fact that there’s a director Picture Quote #1

Evolution advances, not by a priori design, but by the selection of what works best out of whatever choices offer. We are the products of editing, rather than of authorship Picture Quote #1

Editing might be a bloody trade. But knives aren’t the exclusive property of butchers. Surgeons use them too Picture Quote #1

The longer I write, the more important I believe it is to write the first draft as fast as possible. In drafting, I push myself so I am at the edge of discomfort... Later, it will be time for consideration and reconsideration, slow, careful revision and editing. But on the first draft I have to achieve velocity, just as you do if you want the bike to balance Picture Quote #1

Photography is a system of visual editing. At bottom, it is a matter of surrounding with a frame a portion of one’s cone of vision, while standing in the right place at the right time. Like chess, or writing, it is a matter of choosing from among given possibilities, but in the case of photography the number of possibilities is not finite but infinite Picture Quote #1
