The Droid Olympics & Stuff

Cut to Reveal

In episode 19, Ricky and Piotr start off by making fun of Erwann then talk about Camerimage International Film Festival in Torún, Poland. Hopefully Ricky can attend with Piotr this November. After that they give shout-outs to podcast listeners Khalid and Robert for sending in constructive feedback and thanks. If you guys are reading this description you are much appreciate. Piotr and Ricky then make fun of Erwann in the Olympics and discuss how mind-blowing post-production must be for the games. This brings up a 2005 article, that Ricky found written by Paul Hirsch, ACE reminiscing about The Droid Olympics, a competition amongst assistant edits in the late 70’s to early 80s. A fun look back at a hidden time in film history. Piotr then talks about how he used the Milanote app to break down a possible film project into individual cards on a digital board, similar to how great editors like Walter Murch will use photos and post-it notes to see a films structure. After which Piotr mentions that LOST, his favorite TV Shows is now on Netflix and Ricky talks about how great of an edit The Bear S3 Episode 2 is. Shout out to editor Joanna Naugle, ACE from SENIOR POST for that.
