Today on Art of the Cut we speak with Wyatt Smith, ACE about editing Universal’s live action version of How To Train Your Dragon.
Wyatt’s been on Art of the Cut before for Mary Poppins Returns. He was also on to discuss Doctor Strange. Wyatt’s other work includes editing the live action version of The Little Mermaid, Into the Woods, - for which he was nominated for an ACE Eddie - Harriet, and Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides. And he was nominated for an Emmy for Tony Bennett: An American Classic.
Discover the creative discussions about how closely a live-action remake should match its animated predecessor, taking montage inspiration from Alan Heim’s “All That Jazz,” and why lengthen some scenes and shorten others compared to the original film.
