Ep 10, the season finale and my final ep of three that I cut on the show drops next week. @littlemilli.bsky.social played a HUGE role in making the storytelling in ep 10 work, and very much earned her additional editor credit. 172
Cheryl Potter @editchez.bsky.social · 19/01/2025Dissolves have their place, but they have a language - to give a dreamy feel, or show a passage of time, or blend to images visually - that’s their power. To use them without purpose as a lazy solution to a cut that isn’t working? That’s when I hate them. “Dissolve when you can’t resolve.” 000

Cheryl Potter @editchez.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Much of the film takes place in a TV studio, which production design ensured had actual working equipment - live feeds, vision switching, real moviolas - would have been quite a feat, but ensured a real sense of authenticity. #postchat #postsky 020
