Later in the book, after all that stuff, he talks about the differences between film editing and digital/electric editing. I was scheduled to teach Introduction to Digital Video Editing during our Summer semester here at Texas Southern University. The actual core of the book is filled with great philosophy around editing, and honestly even lends its ideas to other facets of life and thought. Aparte de su conocimiento del montaje y de un sentido artístico audiovisual que podíamos dar por hecho, Murch tiene una sensibilidad literaria y una prosa envidiables. The second half is about digital editing, and the first 10 pages or so of that are a little specific about technologies, and things I already knew about (e.

The second half talks about the modern transition from analogue to digital editing, which is only useful or interesting if that’s what you’re into. If this book did anything for me, it helped me fall in love more with the art of editing, but I'm not sure if it gave me a lot of insight on how to be a better editor.

Chyba już trochę zdezaktualizowany (przez opisywanie montażu analogowego), ale mimo to ciekawy wykład o sztuce montażu. I think I was looking for some more practical tips and tricks for editing, but I'm glad I read this and learned about the history of linear editing.

I have the 2nd edition, which came out in 2001, revised to include an updated section on the movement of cinema from film to digital media. It's not a book on how to edit as in what quick keys you should use or how to diagram a scene to keep continuity. Murch views, I guess I'll revisit this book again when I'm starting to apply his view in my work in a couple months. Well written and this is the second edition, although as the author knew would happen, film production has moved on fast.Still, it's converted pretty directly from a lecture he delivered, which keeps the material a little close to the surface for my liking -- I should really keep reading this Peter Wollen film theory book I found at the Strand for the denser, deeper conceptual stuff, or more Ruiz perhaps. If you're interested though, I'd recommend The Conversations: Walter Murch and the Art of Editing Film by Michael Ondaatje. The first half is about the art of editing itself (and more old-style/analog editing), distilling several days worth of raw footage into a final product lasting only few hours. Mniej w niej uwag, które mogą się przydać aspirującym montażystom, ale jest to interesujący wywód pod kątem sprawdzalności zawartych w nim prognoz. yıl önceki ön görüler şu an gerçek oldu ve aynen yazarın aklındaki soru işaretleri günümüzde de oluştu.

In particular, Murch uses his experience editing The English Patient to explore the digital side of editing. In the Blink of an Eye is celebrated film editor Walter Murch's vivid, multifaceted, thought -- provoking essay on film editing. One of the things I found most interesting is that Murch says its not obvious that film cuts should work as well as they do. La edición de 2021 cuenta con capítulos adicionales sobre el sonido de una película y su edición y montaje, así como unas reflexiones sobre el cambio del celuloide al digital en la industria en los últimos años.There's a bit he he has about how people watching films are like bees, there's a bit about how the relationship between a director and a editor should be like a dreamer and a dream reader, and bunch of different examples. Walter Murch Talks the Subtleties of Editing Systems, the Myth of Shot Length, and Visual Sensitivity".
