  • Great for Editors, Directors and Writers

    I went searching for a podcast that discussed all aspects of the craft of editing with working Editors. I landed upon this one. Intelligent, informative and focused, this podcast speaks to not just Editors but Writer’s and Director’s. I look forward to catching up on the past seasons.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Parade: Queer Acts of Love & Resistance with Ricardo Acosta, CCE
Q: What advice do you give directors about editing in documentary work?
Give editing the time it deserves; it's not just cutting but discovering the film through exploration, and editors should be treated as co-creators who work with the director to shape tone, rhythm, and ethical storytelling.
Parade: Queer Acts of Love & Resistance with Ricardo Acosta, CCE
Q: What role does audience screening play in the editing process?
Screenings with diverse audiences help validate the film's moments, revealing which scenes land emotionally and which require adjustment, and they ensure the film remains accessible while preserving its integrity.
Parade: Queer Acts of Love & Resistance with Ricardo Acosta, CCE
Q: How do you balance dozens of subjects to create a single cohesive film without losing the individuality of each person?
It's about empathy and voice—identifying who carries the most emotional truth for each section, while ensuring the choreography of the archival material creates a collective memory that still honors individual stories.
Parade: Queer Acts of Love & Resistance with Ricardo Acosta, CCE
Q: Can you describe the genesis of the project and how you approached editing Parade?
The project came from Justine Pinlot's vision as producer, and I joined as editor to help translate a large, fractured archival history into a cohesive narrative by prioritizing the emotional core and the activists' humanity, while also allowing the footage to guide the film's structure.
EditCon 2025: Edmonton - From Cut to Score: How Collaboration Shapes Film and TV
Q: What advice would you give to someone entering the field?
Cultivate craft across all media, remain open and flexible, understand every team member's role, avoid ego, and cultivate easy collaboration; storytelling and emotional honesty come from teamwork and a willingness to learn from others.
