Today on Art of the Cut, we’re talking with Dreamworks veteran editor, Mary Blee about the film, “The Wild Robot.”
Mary’s editing career began as an assistant editor on the 1991 animated film “Beauty and the Beast.” She’s worked in sound editing and VFX editing. Did additional editing on “Kung Fu Panda” and was an associate editor on “How to Train Your Dragon” and “The Croods.” She was Second Editor on “The Boss Baby” and also worked on subsequent “How To Train Your Dragon,” “Croods” and “Boss Baby” films.
The discussion today includes Mary’s approach to cutting storyboards with feeling, the Rubik’s cube of story beats and how they sometimes need to be spun into proper alignment, and the magic response that a director can have to leave an editor “flying home on a cloud.”
Today is a really good episode to READ along with the podcast because we will have exclusive storyreels for the scenes that are discussed in the podcast and you'll really want to see those, not to mention the absolutely gorgeous timeline screenshot in the blog and clips from the movie.
