-‘film editing’ is both a ‘creative’ + ‘technical’ part of the ‘post-production process’ of ‘filmmaking’

.

(the term is derived from the ‘traditional process’ of working with ‘film’ which increasingly involves the use of ‘digital technology’)

.

(the film editor works with the ‘raw footage’, selecting shots + combines them into ‘sequences’ which create a (finished?) ‘motion picture’)

.

(‘film editing’ is described as an ‘art’ (and?)/or ‘skill’ – the only ‘art’ that is unique to ‘cinema’ – separating ‘film-making’ from other ‘art forms’ that preceded it, although there are close ‘parallels’ to the ‘editing process’ in other ‘art forms’…)

(…such as ‘poetry’ + ‘novel writing’)

.

(‘film editing’ is often referred to as the “invisible art” because when it is well-practiced, the viewer can become so engaged that he or she is not aware of the editor’s work)

.

(on its most fundamental level, ‘film editing’ is the [‘art’ / ‘technique’ / ‘practice’] of assembling shots into a coherent ‘sequence’)

.

*the job of an ‘editor’ is not simply to mechanically put pieces of a ‘film’ together + cut off film slates / edit dialogue scenes…*

.

(a ‘film editor’ must creatively work with the layers of…)

‘images’

‘story’

‘dialogue’

‘music’

‘pacing’

(as well as the actors’ performances)

.

.

(…to effectively “re-imagine” (and even re-write) the film to craft a ‘cohesive whole’)

.

*’editors’ usually play a ‘dynamic role’ in the making of a ‘film’*

.

*sometimes, ‘auteurist film directors’ edit their own ‘films’*

.

(for example…)

‘akira kurosawa’ 

.

‘bahram beyzai’

.

‘the coen brothers’

.

*with the advent of ‘digital editing’, ‘film editors’ (+ their (presumably poor) assistants have become responsible for many areas of film-making that used to be the responsibility of others*

.

*for instance, in past years, picture editors dealt only with just that — PICTURE*

.

(‘sound’ / ‘music’, and (more recently) ‘visual effects’] editors dealt with the practicalities of other aspects of the ‘editing process’, usually under the direction of the ‘picture editor’ / ‘director’)

(however, ‘digital systems’ have increasingly put these responsibilities on the ‘picture editor’)

(it is common – especially on ‘lower budget films’ – for the editor to sometimes cut in ‘temporary music’, mock up ‘visual effects’ + add ‘temporary sound effects’ or other ‘sound replacements’)

.

(these ‘temporary elements’ are usually replaced with more refined ‘final elements’ produced by the [sound / music / visual] effects teams hired to complete the picture)
