Hi everyone, thanks for your very insightful answers. I do feel motivated after reading them. I want to give a special thanks to Tim for taking the time to present so many examples. I will watch Encounters at the End of the World as soon as I finish a gig I am working on. I also loved Errol Morris, I will also check out his films.

I have nothing much to add, just appreciation, it is always uplifting to have your vision shaken into a new perspective, which comes very handy to me right now.

I also learn a lot from your experience and insights Michael, Rich, Todd and Oliver. Again thank you for sharing your visions and I must say I do agree.

And to answer the question about what I mean with filmmaking, it is not really about Hollywood, it is just to be able to join a centuries old conversation about life and humanity, to be able to share your perspective in such a way that can take other people away from their day to day into some other reality. But a you have reminded me, that possibility does not fade away just because your film is an ad for Apple.

Thanks again, friends!

Thanks for the link Joe, I had never heard of this software, it sure looks useful. Specially for rigging.

I have also been adviced to incorporate ToonBoom on the workflow. What are your thoughts about Harmony?

I have been working for 3 years on cultural documentaries for my government. I have to add a lot of people to the credits who were not even part of the production process but have political authority. So the end credits end up looking ridiculously long. Funny thing is this gave me an oportunity to get creative with the credit design. Since we talk about history and archeology some times I place the credit over an old map or an antique code, sometimes I place it over pictures of the crew working, or animations of some sort. People love it, they don´t mind the credits being so darn long.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for sharing. I am very glad to come across this essay since I have been studying musical theory recently, trying to incorporate it to my work as an editor. I agree, the obvious way to introduce rythm into a video is to pace it to a musical track, but this is miles away from applying music theory to editing.

I believe a good exercise can be to edit without using any music following a specific musical structure. I believe Vivaldi and Liszt can be very interesting. Also there are is a large number of experimental musicians (minimalist specially) who can provide good ideas and conepts to any film editor.

Thanks for sharing!
