"Look Closer: The Mind of a Film" is the second chapter in the series "The Science of Editing" by @ThisGuyEdits and Dr. Karen Pearlman, based on her book Cutting Rhythms: Intuitive Film Editing.

Karen holds a Doctorate of Creative Arts and is currently a lecturer in Screen Production at Macquarie University. She is a former President of the Australian Screen Editors Guild and a three-time nominee for Best Editing at the Australian Screen Editors Guild Annual Awards. Karen is also a full member of the Society for Cognitive Studies of the Moving Image, and the Film Critics Circle, Australia.

When you ask an editor what they DO in the edit suite, the answer is often something like, "Well, it's intuitive." To become a better editor, we need to be more specific about what's going on. Karen breaks down the process into the specific step that editors undertake to turn a mass of material into something coherent. You can learn to hone the specific skills of observation and self-awareness that distinguish editors from other observers, and make unexpected connections that move stories in compelling new directions.

Sven Pape of "This Guy Edits" presents their conversation in the form of a powerful video essay that you will find illuminating and inspiring, and will be able to start using right away.

Preparing for the upcoming episode on "sexy editing" I came across this article. Great read about the bond between the director and editor.

Some scenes just seem to break away from the premise of the film yet hold up on their own merit.

Inspired by Leslie Stevens: "Writing is the attempt to put life into a box. It will never quite fit."

Interview With The Filmmaker: Be Prepared And Let Go...

Filmmaker Mark Webber sits down with This Guy Edits to take answers from the youtube community.

Webber was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where he spent his early years. His mother, Cheri Lynn Honkala, is a noted advocate for the homeless in Philadelphia, and was the vice-presidential nominee of the Green Party in the 2012 presidential election. He was raised by his single mother in North Philadelphia. There they spent time homeless, living in cars and abandoned buildings, and struggling to survive during the harsh winters. Webber's life was subsequently the subject of a major news magazine story. He and his mother have been for many years and still are outspoken homeless advocates. They organize walk in protests, help to educate voters, and volunteer to help provide food and shelter to the urban poor in Philadelphia and elsewhere. Cheri Honkala ran for Sheriff of Philadelphia in 2011 with the Green Party on a "no evictions" platform.
