I love these kinda style of videos, its a really big help to hear straight from industry and get an insight on some of the techniques they use! I know it must be hard finding people to do these videos for you but they are a massive help and you should keep doing them!

Thank you so much for doing this video! I've been planning on shooting a documentary for almost a year now, and was really worried about the editing process, I love editing but have no idea where to begin, learned a lot of great tips and I might finally get started on this! The square is one of those few movies where I literally was balling by the end, I think the editing had a lot to do with it.

This is why I love your channel. You not only inform and educate, but you clearly convey the power and importance of editing itself. Regarding documentaries, I have the highest respect for those who edit them. It’s one thing to cover an individual in a documentary. But, to cover an entire movement of historical importance, like The Square, must have been a truly daunting experience. Now, I have to go watch it. Great content, Sven.

Didn’t watch the Film yet, it’s very heartbreaking for me as an Egyptian and participated in the revolution to even watch those couple of minutes you showed. But it’s very overwhelming to see the passionate crew behind it. Thank you

I've seen this 4 times now and his advice on organisation is incredibly helpful. It's something I resisted since I started editing, but after gaining a little experience and especially after seeing this, it was apparent that it's more than that. Character arcs, themes and big ideas all begin to reveal themselves, as well as the structure and the rhythm of the film. It gives you the ability to fully immerse yourself in the content and the characters before you even make the first cut. Someone who understands a story well can tell it well, and I think that's what separates good films from not so good one's. The ability to captivate an audience depends not just on the content, but how you communicate that content. Organisation helps you do exactly that. Well, that's my take away anyway. Amazing video, thank you so much.

God, he has an Emmy! 🥺 I remember this and how fast everything was moving and changing, the use of streamed multimedia and social media to journalise what was rolling out as it happened. Really amazing.

I walk through a very similar process for my story edits and I landed on that process out of necessity. Watching this is very validating, feels like we're all on the right track.

I love this video. I just got the inspiration to begin shooting a documentary and I'm gearing up for it and starting to research how to prepare for the project. I appreciate all the great insights in this video, and I just ordered Jacob Bricca's book. Thanks, Sven!
