Today on Art of the Cut we speak with writer/director/editor, Brendan Bellomo of the Oscar-nominated documentary, Porcelain War. The film was nominated for an ASC Award for cinematography for its cinematographer, even though it was his first time using a camera. It won the DGA Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Documentary. It won the PGA Award for Producing, won the Australian Screen Sound Guild Award and the HPA Award for Best Sound, and won the Sundance Grand Jury Prize award.This discussion includes - among other things - determining the structure of the film based on emotion, why color grading needed to be part of the off-line edit, and how the editing pace was determined by the personality of the documentary’s subjects.
