Editing Quotes

As soon as digital editing came about, I immediately made the switch to digital Picture Quote #1

Obviously movies like this [Fast and the Furious 7] don’t get any love from the Academy. If they do, it may be special effects or sound editing or something like that Picture Quote #1

I have an adult emotional life and an editing system inside me which prevents me from being preposterously stupid Picture Quote #1

I am not altogether confident of my ability to put my thoughts into words: My texts are usually better after an editor has hacked away at them, and I am used to both editing and being edited. Which is to say that I am not oversensitive in such matters Picture Quote #1

In live-action, writing, production, and editing happen in discrete stages. In animation, they overlap - happening simultaneously. This allows a real dialogue to occur between the writer, the director, the actors, and the editor, and it makes the writing process a lot more collaborative and a lot less lonely Picture Quote #1

I’ve never been a big fan of the music-video style of editing movies that crept in the last few decades. I like stuff that’s able to take its time Picture Quote #1

I got to spend all of my time every day at work reading and editing papers about cutting-edge technical research and getting paid for it. Then I’d go home at night and turn what I learned into science fiction stories Picture Quote #1

The creation of the island, or the impression of the island, as it changes in the mind of the character also came in to play... there was another very important collaborator, Rob Legato, on special visual effects. And then ultimately there’s Thelma Schoonmaker, who keeps me focused during the editing of the picture Picture Quote #1

And then to see the whole movie, you’re pretty much waiting until the end of production. And the major lifting in terms of editing and all that stuff is done before you shoot the movie. That’s an unusual way to work Picture Quote #1

If you’re into writing and making people laugh, or just want to video blog something, you should get a simple digital video camera. And all computers now come with an easy video editing software program. Just mess around with that for a little bit, try to figure it out, then just put stuff online and have fun. Never give up! Picture Quote #1

There’s something cathartic about swearing 150 times after spending ten hours in the editing room Picture Quote #1

When I do a still picture, I’m doing it all by myself with no help. I’m designing everything. I am my own art director. I’m doing everything. I’m directing, editing, whatever Picture Quote #1

If you’re not prepared, and you’re not passionate, and you don’t push yourself to a level of human exhaustion on every level, mentally and physically and creatively... I’ve seen directors who approach it casually, and they do somehow maintain better hours... but I could never be that guy. I am up and editing all night Picture Quote #1

I no longer do a film for the wrong reasons. I have to be convinced ethically and morally. Both the director and I have to be on the same page. There are just five songs in most films these days, and they have to be amazing. There has to be a twist in the screenplay. The editing has to be crisp. Your hard work should show, but effortlessly Picture Quote #1

I have an amazing team; I have amazing producers; I have amazing writers, but at the end of it, it’s me making the decisions on the writing, the tone, the editing Picture Quote #1

When you’re making the film, you don’t really think the audience; it’s only when you start editing that you really start to became aware of your audience because you’re thinking of how you communicate these ideas, and how lucid can you be, and yet stay within the language you’ve established Picture Quote #1

Movies become art after editing. Instead of just reproducing reality, they juxtapose images of it. That implies expression; that’s art Picture Quote #1

Self editing is the path to the dark side. Self editing leads to self delusion, self delusion leads to missed mistakes, missed mistakes lead to bad reviews. Bad reviews are the tools of the dark side Picture Quote #1

When you’re in the editing room, the dangerous thing is that it becomes like telling a joke again and again and again. Eventually, the joke starts to not be funny. So you have to be careful that you’re not throwing the baby out with the bath water Picture Quote #1

Editing is like pruning the rose bush you thought was so perfect and beautiful until it overgrew the garden Picture Quote #1

The best songwriting comes from being as creative as you can and editing it down to the good bits, essentially Picture Quote #1

I have an adult emotional life and an editing system inside me which prevents me from being preposterously stupid Picture Quote #1

Professional humorists and cartoonists have to go through a stage in which they have to kill their own internal editor just so they can get stuff out. So whether they believe it or not, they need me on the other end to do that editing for them 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

The best moments can’t be preconceived. I’ve spent a lot of time in editing rooms, and a scene can be technically perfect, with perfect delivery and facial expression and timing, and you remember all your lines, and it is dead Picture Quote #1

In a way, editing is not unlike the movies. The best books, just like the best movies, are a collaboration. They’re only as good as the compromise made between the artists involved Picture Quote #1

Sound and Visual Effects and Editing are sometimes referred to as technical awards. They’re not technical awards. They’re given for artistic decisions. And sometimes we make them better than others, and I guess we made a couple of good ones on this one Picture Quote #1
