Episode notes
Jeff's First Solo Edit Experience
- Jeff Granzow shared this was the first episode he edited solo on The OC. He remembered it as a fun but challenging experience mostly due to the episode's Vegas setting and dynamic camerawork.
Music's Role in Scene Cohesion
- The Strip uniquely features a song motif repeated to link scenes, though Jeff felt one scene could have been punchier. Music choices in The OC are often collaborative but can evolve during production.
Editing the Pool Fight Scene
