The Hold-Up. An Editing Exercise with Roger Ebert
Description
Nationally syndicated film critic Roger Ebert takes students from rushes to the final cut of a dramatic bank robbery scene. Ebert's commentary provides insights into basic editing techniques such as matching action, parallel editing, and continuity, as well as the effects of camera angles, point of view, and reaction shots. The film concludes with two edited versions, illustrating the widely different approaches an editor might take in assembling the sequence. This classic instructional video has become one of the most widely used training tools for editing students.
