Today, we’re talking with Myron Kerstein, ACE about teaming up again with director Jon Chu to edit the cinematic adaptation of the Broadway hit, Wicked.

Before that they collaborated on In the Heights. And before THAT on Crazy Rich Asians - not to mention Kerstein's work with Lin-Manuel Mirandad on tick, tick...BOOM! and we’ve talked about ALL of those films here on Art of the Cut.

Kerstein’s previous work as an editor includes the feature films Going in Style, Garden State and Glee: The 3D Concert Movie. He’s also directed an episode of the Apple Plus TV series, Home Before Dark. To go DEEP into the editorial archives he was once an assistant editor on the iconic series, Sex and the City.

The discussion today is about how his directing work affects his editing, how he treats dance numbers like any dramatic scene, and the fellow musical editor - and fellow Art of the Cut guest - that Myron turned to for advice.
