The way we've chosen to edit is that we will work separately, Theo is doing the first rough cut and shaping it into a 5 and a half minute piece, I will then take over and edit it to a close cut, we will then together work on the final cut with advice from audiences and colleagues.
Our reasons for doing this are that we want to give as much fresh attention as possible, always when editing a film you notice and pick up things that a first time-viewer might not realise or appreciate. We plan to utilise the fact that we're a pair by not jointly editing, we feel it may also be less time efficient, trying to edit together and possibly having contrasting opinions would mean we spend longer debating on what would be the right decision when in fact by editing separately we can build on each other's ideas more effectively.
