This is a book for people who need to edit production sound for film, TV, or video but were never taught how to do it. Efficient working practices are emphasized throughout, so you learn to save time and avoid repetition in vain. Many dialogue editor hobbled by a lack of understanding of the non-sound aspects of filmmaking. Unlike editors who cut effects, backgrounds or Foley, dialogue editor job is directly affected by what has gone before. How a film was shot, recorded and edited will dramatically influence the dialogue editing process. * A veteran sound editor shows you how to produce a flawless dialogue track * Covers the organization and time management so you can work efficiently * Must-have information for sound editors, dialogue editors, and assistant editor * Foreword by Dominick Tavella, who mixed the film in New York (some of his films including: Chocolat, Far and Away, Vanity Fair, and Chicago)
