Synopsis: On Film Editing explains, in simple terms, the principles of film editing, using examples and anecdotes. Written in an informal “how-to-do-it” style, renowned director Edward Dmytyrk shares his expertise and experience in film editing in an anecdotal and philosophical way. In On Film Editing, Dmytryk contends that many technicians and professionals on the film crew– from the cameraman and his assistants to the producer and director– must understand film editing to produce a truly polished work. In this book he explains in layman’s terms the principles of film editing, using examples and anecdotes from almost five decades in the film industry.
