Introduce Yourself

Hi, Mustafa Santoof. How are you doing? What are you working on?

Thanks for reaching out. Im doing great thanks for asking, I’m currently editing short and long films.

What projects are you working on at the moment?”

You're welcome, Mustafa Santoof. Congratulations on the editing jobs! I got a lot done during Stage 32's November Write Club. I'm rewriting a Horror Action feature script. It was my main project during Write Club.

That's great Mustafa Santoof I personally think you are in one of the safest jobs in film. While AI can edit clips together maybe for music videos and a bit for narrative, I think a human editor will always be better at not only analyzing and selecting the best performances, but understanding the rhythm of the cut and how to use that timing to evoke emotions.

What skill do you pride yourself on most when it comes to being an editor? Speed, precision, pacing, transitions?

thank you. I'll have to put one together and add it to my list of things to do

Thanks for posting the breakdown, Jack Binder. I remember reading it. Great breakdown!

ok.so instead of starting my next 10 pages I need to write a treatment to protect my work by copyright ok. thank you everyone

You can, Tony Sterago, or you can finish the script and register it before pitching the project.

It's never, EVER too late to follow your passion, Tony. Best of luck.

Hi Andre!

Lovely to meet you (digitally!

Wow Leonardo Ramirez 2 it's hard to see it sometimes but there's always hope, anything that serves to uplift people is invaluable.

Erik Gagnon I can relate, I worked for longer than I should have in beauty retail. I met some extraordinary people in that environment and yes most of them are working towards a different life.

Thanks so much Marie Hatten, And you're right. Sometimes, it's hard to see. But it is there.

Absolutely is Leonardo Ramirez 2 . Something I took from a meditation , the natural world is still there (sound of the ocean waves, bird song etc) it's just that we are seeing it through the lens of whatever we are currently experiencing.

I'll argue the arts are absolutely useful for society. Not only do they help us express our deepest feelings, but they also shed light on our culture and society. Not that stories should always be political or socially-charged, but oftentimes, it is through stories we explore our most imaginative and reflective ideas and theories.

You're welcome, Jan Pavlov. I'm looking forward to watching LUCK IS A HARD TARGET! If you ever have any questions about Stage 32, let me or another Lounge Moderator know. We have badges on our pictures. Or you could email support@stage32.com.

Daniel Connell made a post in the Filmmaking/Directing Lounge today, asking for help/advice on Kickstarter (www.stage32.com/lounge/directing/Help-Advice-on-Kickstarter-2).

I'm a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator. It’s Stage 32’s policy that members have a proper first and last name or a pen name on their accounts. A lot of Stage 32 members are reluctant to accept network requests from profiles that don’t have proper names, and they’ll report the accounts as spam, which will cause the accounts to get removed.

Alright thanks

I suggest using a photo of yourself as your profile picture. People will feel more comfortable networking and collaborating with you if they know what you look like. You can upload a picture by clicking the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and selecting “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu, then clicking the red button underneath your location and choosing "Update profile picture."

Thanks a lot, Jaime A. Cedeno - Happy Thanksgiving!
