#373 - Jennifer Lame, ACE in Conversation (The Highlights)

Jonny Elwyn -

This issue of Cut/daily is pretty long compared to how we usually do things around here, but if Chris Nolan can get IMAX to fit a 3-hour movie onto a 70mm print platter with a custom-built extension, then you can hopefully scroll a bit further than usual!

The other week, I had the privilege of chatting with uber-talented editor Jennifer Lame, ACE for 30 minutes, which you can now read in full here, or whet your appetite with a trio of selected highlights below...

  • How Jennifer used to build a scene and why she does it differently now
  • Why she only had four weeks to rough cut Oppenheimer
  • How she collaborates with Christopher Nolan and why he avoids watching an assembly anyway...

Over the next three weeks, I am encouraging all of my US-based Post-Production Professional friends to fill in this industry rates survey. It's quick, easy, anonymous and super important!
