Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisIn the Blink of an Eye is celebrated film editor Walter Murch's vivid, multifaceted, thought -- provoking essay on film editing. Starting with what might be the most basic editing question -- Why do cuts work? -- Murch treats the reader to a wonderful ride through the aesthetics and practical concerns of cutting film. Along the way, he offers his unique insights on such subjects as continuity and discontinuity in editing, dreaming, and reality; criteria for a good cut; the blink of the eye as an emotional cue; digital editing; and much more. In this second edition, Murch reconsiders and completely revises his popular first edition's lengthy meditation on digital editing (which accounts for a third of the book's pages) in light of the technological changes that have taken place in the six years since its publication.

    Best editing literature!

    This is the introduction to the science behind the cut point.

    Never thought editing had so many nuances. This is must read for anyone in film and video. The man preaches that a cut should never be inched in one direction or another. That statement alone should shake your thought process. Discusses the rhythm and blink point of cutting.
