Re: [Avid-L2] Basic editing approaches

 

I'd say to not be a slave to any one element. Don't make picture & sound be a slave to music, but cut the music to meet your needs as you would anything else. Vary everything, if you truly want to speak the language.

(And split an infinitive any damn time you like.)
