Wicked for Good

Today on Art of the Cut, we speak with multi-Oscar-nominated editor, Myron Kerstein, ACE, about editing Jon Chu’s Wicked for Good.Chu and Kerstein last worked together - of course - on Wicked. And before that on tick, tick… BOOM. Before THAT they collaborated on In the Heights. And before THAT on Crazy Rich Asians - and we’ve talked about ALL of those films here on Art of the Cut.Kerstein’s previous work as an editor includes the feature films Going in Style, Garden State and Glee: The 3D Concert Movie. He’s also expanded his talents to the director’s chair, but that’s a topic for another interview.This interview discusses the value of story cards on a wall, the complexities of editing vocals recorded live during filming, and the implications of this film’s darker tone and operatic power.If you'd like to read along with this inteview and see exclusive photos, check out the BorisFX blog site:borisfx.com/blog/aotc
