Music adds emotion to a scene. Should we cut the scenes right from the start with music to make use of that emotion to elevate a scene. Or should you first cut the scene without music to find its raw emotional core, then add the music? Every editor has a different take on this question. This Guy shares his point of view and his take might surprise you. Here is a rough scene with some temp music by Max Elto. This Guy is an A.C.E. Award Nominee and edited for James Cameron, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, & James Franco. He currently edits the new film "Flesh & Blood" directed by Sundance alum Mark Webber.
