“Good editing is like good sex”, in the lucid words of editor and director Susan Korda. “You create an expectation in your audience – and then you fulfil it”. Tracing scenes from Bonnie and Clyde and Jaws back to the initial “Oh, shit!” experience in the editing room, Susan reveals how bold editing creates a gratifying cinematic experience. Sharing tools learnt from Walter Murch and Michael Rabiger, she demystifies the processes of montage and demonstrates how to “kill your darlings”, the ability to surrender preconceived preferences. And editing is also a collective process, so let's go in together for the kill.
