SDGNZ Editing Workshop
WORKSHOP BREAKDOWN
In this two day workshop Annie will guide the group through practical narrative editing skills using examples of material from a feature film.
Over the two days participants will work in pairs and the workshop will be structured around each person editing scenes, then comparing and discussing the results.
The process will start with viewing the rushes, then proceed to assembling and editing. Scene scripts will be sent to all participants in advance as pre workshop reading material and script analysis will occur throughout the workshop.
The workshop will cover:
- approaching the edit of a drama or feature
- characterisation
- the editor/director relationship
- the visual style
- sound/music
