After reading Walter Murch's In The Blink of an Eye, learning how all these old films were put together and the effort to get them done amazes me. The fact they did all this cutting and shadow cuts without using a computer like I can can truly show dedication. Reading the part about how they used to cut was probably the most influential part to me as they had to remove a part of the film out and then forge the other two pieces back together to make it flow naturally again. Reading this excerpt has made me want to learn about the old forms of film editing and the whole process of it.
Hollywood Questions
Who are they? The main character is a superhero that has the abilities of flight, super speed, yoyo, and super strength. What do they want? The superhero wants to save the hostages. How do they get it? He fights the bad guy and wins, then makes him eat a Snickers bar and he turns into a nice person because you are not you when you're hungry. Then what? The good guy and bad guy are related and the hostages are safe. -Josiah Phillips, Yissel Cornelio, Ashley Adams, Osadebamwen Omoruyi Chris Hernandez
