The rhythm of a story
A great edit isn't always about moving faster. Sometimes, the most powerful decision is knowing when not to cut.
I approach each sequence through three questions:
- What should the audience feel?
- What information matters at this moment?
- How can timing strengthen that emotion?
Building the sequence
I begin with the story, shape its rhythm, and refine each transition until the sequence feels natural.
The goal isn't to make the editing noticeable. It's to make the story unforgettable.
