The Art of Editing by Lee Chatametikool
Editing is what sets cinema apart from other artforms. In this session, we will explore what editing is and why it is referred to as the final rewrite of the script.
In this session, we explore the foundation of editing and the magical way our mind creates meaning out of two shots. This technique, called montage, is what sets cinema apart from other artforms. Beyond the technical process of assembling the shots and scenes into the final film, we will discuss why editing is the natural tool to drive the conflict, heighten the tension, and enhance the story. We will see how the art of editing is central to the emotional response of the audience. And why editing is often referred to as the final rewrite of the script.

Writing The Sound Design by Vincent Villa
How to feel the temperature of a scene? How do we want the character to listen? What information do we want the viewer to feel about the characters? In what type of sound environment? The basis of sound design is the free association of sounds with images.
"The importance of working with young filmmakers is an opportunity for a sound designer to remain in the act of creation from the first moments, where the freedom to create has no equal, because that is where it all starts, this creation of a unique writing between image and sound, which will be like a guide, a point of attachment, a reference, a unique style, which will be shaped throughout the director's career."
