Editing
It’s good to start thinking about the delivery specifications from the moment you choose your shooting format. The staff in the Facilities department can help you clarify your post-production pathway and offer advice and services that minimise the stress of post production.

“It’s important to get your editor on board at the pre production stage, they will prove invaluable in helping you to work out your post production pathway. With the plethora of shooting formats available it is imperative you receive advice on what consequences your choice will have in the edit suite.” Craig Boreham, previous Facilities Coordinator, Metro Screen
