I have a
new movie project coming up in the next few days. The director of my last movie
contacted me asking if I would be interested in doing sound design/editing
duties on a short-feature called ‘Jam’. I have of course agreed, as I really
enjoyed working with those people in the past. Plus, it was an invaluable
learning experience and it got me a Bafta LOL! Since, I would be starting the
editing with the dialogue I thought I could give “Dialogue Editing for Motion
Pictures” by John Purcell a read. It could serve both as a prep work for the
upcoming film, but also, I hope that I could possibly get some cool new ideas
for the dissertation topic. The art of editing dialogue is hugely under
documented in all publications on film sound. And however very technical the
process is, it’s still art, and I could be onto something here if I read this
book...
