Today on Art of the Cut we are talking about Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice with editor Jay Prychidny, CCE.
This is Jay’s fourth time on Art of the Cut. He previously joined us to talk about Snowpiercer, Wednesday, Scream VI, and now, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.
Jay’s won a BAFTA and been nominated for and won numerous Canadian Cinema Editor’s Awards for his work on Orphan Black, The Alienist, The Amazing Race Canada, and many others.
Today we’re going to be discussing re-structuring a film to blend disparate elements, trying to create a mashup of MacArthur Park that tells a story while remaining musically cohesive, and turning a simple montage into a nostalgic, emotional journey.
