While cutting ‘Frankenstein’, editor Evan Schiff found he had to work fast and edit live with director Guillermo del Toro - whether in person or remote.
“Guillermo comes in like, ‘This specific thing is bugging me, let’s attack it and fix it together.’ So that is very much a synchronous, real-time task.”
