HUGE SHOUTOUT to “The Editing Podcast” if you guys want to see the full interview from the editors of the Bear check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKDbZZqvhL6Jpqcsi=gl-Jb9nPA3JrlL07

[@OzzyFpv]

Every day presents the challenge of evolving our editing techniques to captivate the audience effectively. It's an invitation to be bold and capture attention in the right way. Innovative camera angles, breaking a few rules, playing with lighting, cranking up the FX volume, and mooore you're absolutely spot on, Alex!

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Thanks Ozzy, I’m glad you liked it brother!

[@dustyhills8911]

Having worked in restaurants for over 20 years, I can tell you The Bear absolutely feels authentic. This is a great breakdown as to why. I'm more of a writer/director than a tech guy, but I am taking some of these pacing lessons with me into the writing process because I am aware of people's shortening attention spans. I would be curious to read the scripts for The Bear and see how these scenes were written as opposed to how they came out on the screen.

[@PocketDrummer]

Honestly, the editing I've been seeing in movies lately just feels exhausting. I'll admit a lot of older movies drug things out way longer than necessary (2001 Space Odyssey was not a fun experience for me, sorry), but newer movies have gone to the other end of the spectrum. I find myself getting to the end of the movie and not feeling like there were any particular moments that truly resonated. Just action after action after action and then it ends. There has to be a happy medium between the two approaches.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Honestly I can agree with you. I feel like some movies try to jam a ton of information or just throw a bunch of eye candy at you, hoping to retain the audience.

[@scotthunter9547]

I'm going back and rewatching fave old b&w's cuz story exists, editing is on line with the story abd sound design doesn't overwhelm (yes I sound like the @crankyoldfilmmaker that I am)

[@manasseh7]

shout out to guy Ritchie doing this since the 90's

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

You know you’re actually right and that’s a great point guy richie has been doing that since snatch lol

[@cliftonsledge962]

Can’t wait for the next video, please don’t make me wait too long 😉. Great work 👍🏾

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Haha thanks man and I won’t I got a pretty cool one coming out on Thursday 🙌🏻

[@newwayofthinking]

Great breakdown brother. Good job on the insights. Thank you

[@psysword]

Really interesting even though I would never watch this show. A glorified cooking show is still never going to get me no matter the fanciest editing. But a good breakdown. appreciated.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

I hear you man, but I’m telling you this show is actually really good. I thought the same thing until I heard all the hype about it, and I was curious to see what the hype was about and I promise you it’s for a good reason. Great editing, great acting and great directing.

[@TheCinemaStudent]

I am loving your content! I look forward to the journey!

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Thanks Chris, we got some really awesome stuff coming soon

[@TheCinemaStudent]

@Alexzarfatifilms I am currently a disabled student studying online at the Los Angeles film school for cinematography, directing, and acting so this info is very much helpful. I have years of experience in front of the camera as I was on Sesame Street, and in ConAir, and Mars Attacks.

[@realtmony]

Nice job. Watching from Nigeria

[@lararuizmartin]

love the video!

[@Eraserhead1995]

Thank you for such a useful video

[@matt.banton]

Love these breakdowns, nice work Alex. Always enjoy the content (and great to see how fast the channel is growing, i found you at the start :)

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Thanks Matt it’s been a long road but I think we finally got things going. I appreciate your support, especially at the start man🙌🏻

[@matt.banton]

​@@Alexzarfatifilms Defiantly! You've put the work in to build a solid foundation. You always motivate me to do better. Looking forward to seeing your course launch

[@rasdhari_entertainment]

thank you so mach for making this type of content take love form India ❤❤

[@LeaFagelstrom]

I was watching this video and I kept thinking to myself: "I feel like I have seen parts of this before" and that's because I HAVE XD Why would you not credit the editing podcast in the video?

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

I did in the description

[@yourlegacyfilmmaker]

I don't necessarily think attention spans are shortening. I think our interest in things have shortened. If the attention span thing is true, then why would we bing watch on netflix? Films have also gone from 2 hours to 3 hours in most cases.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

That’s actually a really good point however The style of editing has completely changed over the years I think the pacing of films and TV is a lot faster than it used to be.

[@yourlegacyfilmmaker]

@@Alexzarfatifilms I can completely agree there. There’s a time and place for the style. Watching The Holdovers was a super slow film. If it was edited like The Bear, it wouldn’t have the same affect. Understanding how to shoot for the environment is key as well. I’m Greek. My family owned restaurants. So I can relate when watching the fast paced cuts cause it really is like that.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

@@yourlegacyfilmmaker Another good point you made was there’s a time and place for everything. And yeah, I used to work in the restaurant business when I first started my filmmaking career and I gotta say that they absolutely nailed the feeling lol.

[@yourlegacyfilmmaker]

@@Alexzarfatifilms Seems like it. This video has inspired me to watch it now

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

@yourlegacyfilmmaker lol it’s a good one man you should check it out🙌🏻

[@stencil_one]

Great video. Also, Alex... just sent you an email about a collab idea. Let me know what you think when you can :)

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Thank you so much for the compliment. And yes, I appreciate you reaching out my agent should get back to you shortly. 🙌🏻

[@PawFromTheBroons]

5:20 Love your video, but you might want to be more careful with overlays like this one. You're going places, that much is obvious.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

WOW I did not see that. Thanks for bringing that to light🙏🏻

[@PawFromTheBroons]

@@Alexzarfatifilms we've all done that, at one point when tunnel vision sets in, and you loose ability to critically see what you're working on. That's why apart from taking breaks, I like to work on parallel projects to switch to, when I need something else to refresh my mind with and still work.

[@JuNo7373]

Could you please point out on what you are specifically reffering? I'm not seeing it but would love to know. Thanks.

[@PawFromTheBroons]

@@JuNo7373 The text on-screen is weirdly cropped on the right, resulting in missing or partial words.

[@JuNo7373]

​@@PawFromTheBroonsI see it now, thank you :)

[@jonydude2645]

a bit off topic, but damn your neck is thick
