Oscar Predictions Update: The Post Globes and SAG World

It feels so nice to get a respite from big awards announcements. While the critics groups will still continue to weigh in the awards, this might be the first time in weeks I’ve been able to update my Oscar predictions without the fear that some major announcement would render them null and void.

Film School Files: Nefarious Projections

Film School Files: For my Editing class this semester we were each tasked with editing film shot by a classmate. I was partnered with Christine and this is the final cut of my edit of her movie Nefarious Projections. As a horror fan, I was excited about this project and I really wanted to make it as creepy as possible.. It’s an interesting process editing someone else’s film cause you see the story differently. I cut out entire scenes from her script to make this cut, but as the editor I wanted to find the essence of her film. The sound editing is also a bit off but I’m still learning. Anyways I hope you enjoy!

By ratcheting up the tension and delivering some of the best set pieces of the year, Pater Jackson and company manage to craft a fairly engaging tale.
