Problem-free Post Production: Strategies and Insights

Problem-free Post Production - Strategies and Insights from 5 Edit Experts on how to help edits run as smoothly as possible.

This Panel Discussion features Post Producer Emma Comans, Edit Assistant Tom Sales, Edit Producer Ann Marie Goodwin, Editor Pete Benn, and is hosted by SP Jo Woolf. It's aimed at Pre-Production and Shoot personnel working in unscripted TV who would like to know more about what can be done in Pre-Production, during shoots, and in the Edit Set-Up period, to make sure the actual edit runs as smoothly as possible.  

Each speaker will explain their role and perspective.  They will each share what they feel should best be provided, and should best be avoided, to save that all-important time and money in the edit.  

Complex multi-cam projects, feature docs, brand new series, traditional series, and high end TV projects for all the major channels and platforms will be discussed.  

There will be plenty of time for questions from the audience, and the Panel would also love to hear your insights about any Post-Production tips and techniques.
