Walter Murch's Book "In the Blink of an Eye": amzn.to/20ujg6B
Do you want to learn how to start any edit like feature film and documentary editors do it? Please visit: www.secreteditinghacks.com/
Here is a simple example of a scene in the current editing of the film "Flesh & Blood" where this concept is put to the test.
THIS GUY EDITS (TGE) is a youtube channel by film editor Sven Pape, an A.C.E. award nominee, whose credits include work for directors James Cameron, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and James Franco.
TGE is not about how to run a piece of software, but rather how to tell stories creatively.
Sven cuts his latest film for Sundance filmmaker Mark Webber. “Flesh & Blood” is their third collaboration.
Several times a week TGE will post update videos. You get to see the timeline and the editor's play-by-play commentary as he cuts scenes. It shows work in progress.

For example TGE puts Walter Murch’s theory of “The Blink of an Eye” to the test. Another segment reveals editing tips on how to dramatically get into and out of scene. A future episode includes David Mamet’s philosophy on scene writing as it applies to editing.

You're a thinker that connects with the footage. That's hard to find in the indie low budget world in LA. My last editor simply cut, cut, cut. He had to be guided in everything. Where are you based?

Thanks. Murch's book is terrific. The eye blink is like a beat. One thing I found is early on when I've clicked an in point in real time, if that edit just feels wrong, it's usually because I cut on a blink. That's the first thing I look for when it doesn't feel right.Then, I'd look for a better point before or after the blink. Eyes, not necessarily blinking, are a great way to shift direct attention in a scene. Rather than just cut to the person beginning to speak, I like to come out of a reaction shot where that person looks to the speaker, and then I cut. Thanks again for your excellent lessons.

This is whats so invigorating when it comes to film. The introspection you can put into the craft. Movies can be made using so many different thought processes and mantras or ideologies behind how go about making one. But, if you remember: movies (creating art in general) give the creators the opportunity to guide others to feelings and thoughts they might not ever experience otherwise. The way we direct, edit, act... These are the tools we have when it comes to guiding others down the stories or experiences we want to impart. Film is like a language that lets you speak to others in emotion. (end pompous rant lol)

Great video! It gave me some food for thought. I noticed the movement of the blink will draw your attention to that part of the screen. With out a blink at the beginning of a clip you eye has to search the screen for something to focus on.

Your channel is GOLD! Thanks so much for content that goes above and beyond the run of the mill lessons we see on YouTube.

Thank you for the showcase! I just realized that I did think about this blinking and changing mooment before I knew the techinique, I'm just not so sure of myself (my self-doubt is high), so usually I take lots amount of time watching and rewatching footages, the before and after of the cut for every shot and that just took so much time and energy. Now I know that there is a principle to follow! Thanks again!!!

Read that book before I even started editing my scenes. A great read indeed. Great video. Keep them coming!

Wow, found this video by accident but glad I did. Currently reading In the Blink of an Eye and think this video is amazing in showing what a difference it makes when you actually pay attention to the eyes and how the blink represents different thoughts entering and leaving someones mind. Applying this toward editing is simply genius. Loving this book and loving your video.

2:25 Murch’s theory is explained as to when to cut (right before or after the blink). Great video!

I bought and read "In the Blink of an Eye" and read it. Great book, thanks for recommending it.

Love that book. Got mine in film school too. There's definitely some books worth selling back after the semester, but that is not one of them.

I use this technique when editing documentary and interviews all the time. It seems so obvious when it's explained and Walter Murch opened my eyes (slight pun intended) to the rhythm of editing.
