Editing for Directors is the first book of its kind, guiding filmmakers through the entire postproduction process — from planning for editing during production to delivering the final cut. Clear and well illustrated, it explains how editors shape story and performance, how directors can collaborate effectively in the cutting room, and how to navigate everything from dailies and visual effects to sound design, color grading, and final deliverables. Practical, comprehensive, and creative in scope, it serves as an essential roadmap for directors working in today’s evolving editing landscape.
