In this weekend workshop, students can learn the principles and conventions of film and video editing for drama and documentary. Know when to break with convention, how to build suspense with pacing and shot selection and what breaks (or keeps) audience attention. An experienced editor will discuss the history and theory of film/video editing and demonstrate editing principles through viewing examples. Complement their editing skills and craft their footage into a masterpiece through well-chosen shots that are paced and cut to reflect the story perfectly.
