Editing is a crucial stage in documentary production. With the theoretical workshop The Art of documentary editing, learn how to assemble images to sublimate the reality of cinematic storytelling. With the help of concrete examples, you’ll discover the techniques and components that contribute to the narrative fluidity of your film. Visual extracts from Xi Feng‘s impressive filmography will illustrate the course.
The workshop will be given in French but questions may be asked in English. For further information, please send an e-mail to : services@mainfilm.qc.ca
