WORKSHOP: THE ART OF EDITING - WITH JOSH NEWMAN

Thursday 1st March 8.30pm - Keynes Hall, King's College

Many people have said that editing is the essence of producing a film. Francis Ford Coppola called it the "Engine Room" and Krzysztof Kieslowski said that shooting was only gathering material for the edit. Award-winning short film director Josh Newman, who has also worked as an editor in Los Angeles, will talk you through the techniques that filmmakers use to make their film that little bit more special.
