With all the excitement around Anya Taylor Joy and Chris Hemsworth's Furiosa, I thought this would be a cool video to make.
Mad Max: Fury Road" (2015) and "Transformers" (2007) are both high-octane action films, but they employ distinctly different editing and cinematographic techniques to captivate audiences.
Both films utilize their respective editing styles to enhance their storytelling: "Mad Max" with its relentless pace and stabilizing center-framing creates a streamlined narrative amidst chaos, whereas "Transformers" offers a more traditional blockbuster experience with its own brand of kinetic spectacle. Despite their different approaches, both films effectively use their visual strategies to immerse viewers in their thrilling cinematic worlds.
"Mad Max: Fury Road," directed by George Miller, is renowned for its frenetic editing style. This rapid editing pace creates a visceral viewing experience that reflects the chaotic, dystopian world of the film. Moreover, Miller employs a technique known as center-framing, where the subject of action is kept in the center of the frame. This method is particularly effective for eye-tracking, as it allows the audience to easily follow the action without needing to shift their gaze significantly, thus maintaining a continuous flow and understanding of the high-speed scenes.
In contrast, "Transformers," directed by Michael Bay, also features fast editing. The editing pace contributes to the dynamic nature of the film, highlighting the spectacular transformations and battle sequences between Autobots and Decepticons. However, unlike "Mad Max," "Transformers" does not adhere consistently to center-framing. Bay’s style is more eclectic, often using sweeping camera movements and rapidly changing angles that challenge the viewer’s eye-tracking ability. This can create a more disorienting effect, which, while dynamic, sometimes requires more effort from the audience to follow the action.

Synopsis: In this film breakdown, we dive deep into the intricate world of film editing with a focus on Christopher Nolan's latest cinematic masterpiece. With the expert editing hands of Jennifer Lame, ACE, at the helm, I explore how the compelling narrative of "Oppenheimer" is brought to life through meticulous editing techniques.
Lame is nominated for the Oscar and is the favorite to win, further underlining her significant contribution to the film's success.
Starring Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, and Robert Downey Jr., the film's dynamic pacing and dramatic tension are a testament to the power of post-production. Join me as I break down key scenes to understand the editing choices that elevate storytelling, creating an immersive experience for the audience.
This video is not just a behind-the-scenes look; it's an educational journey into the art of film editing.

Whether you're a film enthusiast or an aspiring editor, this video offers invaluable insights into making cinematic magic.

In this video, Dr. Karen Pearlman discusses the concept of trajectory phrasing as a tool for editors to shape rhythm in their work. She explains that editing is intuitive but can be broken down into specific elements such as timing, pacing, and trajectory phrasing. Timing refers to the placement, duration, and order of shots, while pacing involves the rate of cutting, movement within shots, and overall rate of change. Trajectory phrasing focuses on the energy and intention behind movement in shots. Pearlman emphasizes that AI cannot imitate the intention and emotional storytelling that editors bring to their work. She uses examples from the TV show "Ted Lasso" and the film "Babylon" to illustrate the use of trajectory phrasing. Pearlman suggests that editors should tune their eyes to the intention behind movement, refine their skills at phrasing, and use timing and pacing to build tension or release tension in their edits.How His FAN TRAILERS Set Hollywood On FireThis Guy Edits2023-07-24 | Jonathan cut Fan Trailers for fun, now he starts his editing career at one of the biggest trailer film production companies in Los Angeles.

Guest expert Mark Edward Lewis from cinemasound.com shows some easy ways to take advantage of the free DaVinci Resolve software, using one of the most powerful EQ tools around.
After nearly 30 years of writing and producing musical scores, re-recording mixing, developing sound design, editing, writing and directing, Mark has a unique perspective on how to create high production value for independent productions.
What makes Mark an invaluable resource is his mastery of all aspects of audio production. One of the new breed of directors who approaches storytelling from an “audio first” perspective, Mark’s projects have a flow, pacing and emotional impact that few directors possess. Always strongly adhering to the axiom, “Post production begins in pre-production” Mark has righted many adrift productions with his organization, creativity, ingenuity, and cross-discipline experience.
Mark has worked professionally in nearly every area of production and post production including event development, most recently as a post-production supervisor on the Avenger’s S.T.A.T.I.O.N. with Frank Serafine. In 2016, he was the main presenter for the “Sound Advice” tour in North America and Australia where he taught over 1,200 filmmakers about improving their production value with better sound.

Effigy – Poison and the City is Udo Flohr’s first feature, which he also co-produces. It’s the true story of Gesche Gottfried, one of the first female serial killers ever identified, who murdered 15 people with rat poison between 1813 and 1827. She was found guilty of killing her parents, her three children, her twin brother, three husbands, and some friends and neighbors. Another 20 victims were lucky enough to survive. In 1831, Gottfried was executed for her crimes at age 46.
Effigy was shot in Germany and is scheduled for theatrical release in 2019. Thomas Kist, N.S.C. handled the cinematography. The screenplay was written by Peer Meter (based on his own stage play and on original court records), Udo Flohr, and Antonia Roeller. Set design by Christina v. Ahlefeldt-Laurvig and Knut Splett-Henning.
Effigy stars Suzan Anbeh, Elisa Thiemann in her first lead role, Christoph Gottschalch, Roland Jankowsky, Uwe Bohm, Marc Ottiker, Marita Marschall, Tom Keidel, Eugen Krössner, Christian Intorp, and many others. -----------------------------------

In Bandersnatch, viewers make decisions for the main character, the young programmer Stefan Butler who is adapting a fantasy choose-your-own-adventure novel into a video game in 1984. The film is based on a planned Imagine Software video game of the same name which went unreleased after the company filed for bankruptcy. It also alludes to Lewis Carroll's own works that feature the bandersnatch creature. A piece of science fiction and horror, Bandersnatch incorporates meta-commentary and rumination on free will.
Bandersnatch is presented as an interactive film. A brief tutorial, specific to the device being streamed on, explains to the viewer how to make choices. They have ten seconds to make choices, or a default decision is made. Once a playthrough ends, the viewer is given an option of going back and making a different choice. The average viewing is 90 minutes, though the quickest path ends after 40 minutes. There are 150 minutes of unique footage divided into 250 segments.
