Edit Feedback (can editors/directors get by without it?) and Cate Blanchett (says she's middle class. no, seriously)

Episode 10 - we’re into double digits folks!

Erwann and Ricky fill in Piotr on meeting up in Paris. They go deep on discussing their thoughts about Piotr’s latest Cut to the Point video: “Why Editing Feedback is Key for your Film (Especially if You’re the Director).” The guys go back and forth on whether directors should even edit their own films and how they’ve convinced directors to work with them in the past. Piotr edited the short film he wrote/directed and Erwann asks if, in hindsight, Piotr should’ve had someone else edit it. The guys then touch on their process before diving into the edit. Then they comment how Cate Blanchett was named jury president of the main competition at Camerimage 2024, the film fest that celebrates cinematographers. Did you know she considers herself “middle class?” The dudes riff on that, too. Then they get into movie watch lists - Piotr watches Punch Drunk Love and the Polish film, Sonata (spoiler alert), Ricky is still watching Fallout and Erwann saw The Old Oak and cried. To conclude, Piotr and Erwann talk about American Fiction which Ricky still hasn’t seen. What are you watching?
