Griselda
2024/02/12
Editors - Joaquin Elizondo and Chris Cavanagh The GRISELDA editing team of Joaquin Elizondo and Chris Cavanagh didn't have an easy time finding work when they first made their way to Hollywood, but through a mentor/mentee relationship built on a foundation of trust, they would eventually join forces on another drug war-themed Netflix show, NARCOS: MEXICO.  That NARCOS crew would go on to form the foundation of the team behind GRISELDA. GRISELDA is directed by Andrés Baiz, produced by Eric Newman and Sofía Vergara, and written by Doug Miro and Ingrid Escajeda.  It stars Vergara as Griselda Blanco, a notorious Colombian drug lord.  The story follows her rise in the Miami drug scene and her pursuit of power and wealth. JOAQUIN ELIZONDO Joaquin Elizondo has over 20 years of experience as an editor. He currently works in the world of scripted television shows in Hollywood. His most recent editing credits prior to Griselda include Narcos: Mexico (Netflix), The Hot Zone: Anthrax (NatGeo) and Dark Winds (AMC).  Before arriving in Los Angeles, Joaquin worked in unscripted television for several years in New York City. There he edited content for HBO Sports, NBC, Telemundo, and was the lead editor on Bravo’s late-night talk show Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.  Joaquin majored in Film & Video Studies at the University of Michigan. He grew up in the San Diego-Tijuana border region where he began his career cutting a wide range of projects. They include news, promos, commercials, and documentaries. CHRIS CAVANAGH In the last few years, Chris has been pursuing his passion for editing scripted stories.  Prior to his work on Griselda, Chris recently served as an editor on NARCOS: MEXICO Season 3 for NETFLIX.  Before that, he was editing as an assistant editor and mentored by top-shelf editors on COBRA KAI for NETFLIX, STAR TREK for PARAMOUNT+, and DARK WINDS for AMC.  Before moving to LA to work in scripted entertainment, Chris edited dozens of unscripted TV shows, documentaries, and indie films in NYC.  When he's not in a cutting room, Chris is playing with his two kids, cooking dinner with his wife, or attempting to complete one of the 7,942 daily tasks required to exist as both a professional and a parent in the 21st century. Editing Griselda In our discussion with the GRISELDA editing team, we talk about: Not making NARCOS all over again Letting go of the facts to keep things fresh Real-time language translation before its time Making the most of mentorship Doing the director's cut during the assembly The Credits Visit ExtremeMusic for all your production audio needs Read the Rough Cut multimedia blog at Frame.io See what's new with Avid Media Composer Get FREE STUFF from Joaquin's Hollywood Editing Mentor program Subscribe to The Rough Cut podcast and never miss an episode Visit The Rough Cut on YouTube

Mr. and Mrs. Smith
2024/02/05
Editor - Greg O'Bryant MR. AND MRS. SMITH editor, Greg O'Bryant was not just joining the biggest project of his career with this new Amazon series, but he would also be the "new guy" on a well-oiled machine of storytellers from the tv series, ATLANTA.  Taking the chance really paid off for Greg.  Not only did he get to try his hand at action, but he got to have his name in the credits twice (Greg also co-produced)! Turning the premise of the 2005 feature film inside out, here John and Jane are two strangers-turned-partners who carry out their spy-like duties under the cover of being married software engineers.  Taking their orders from an unseen task master they call "HiHi", the two learn the ropes of being "Smiths" while learning to love, and somewhat trust, one another.

Burns on the latter's political drama, THE REPORT (2019).  Greg would also edit an episode of the series, THE LOUDEST VOICE (2019) that Burns helmed.  Most recently, the two collaborated on the Apple TV+ series, EXTRAPOLATIONS (2023).  In addition to his work with Scott Z. Burns, Greg is also a frequent collaborator with show runner, Nick Antosca.  Their partnership first began on CHANNEL ZERO, a SyFy Channel anthology series based on the popular Internet "Creepypastas" Candle Cove, The No-End House and Butcher's Block.  Subsequent projects with Antosca would include Hulu's original series, THE ACT, as well as the Netflix series, BRAND NEW CHERRY FLAVOR.  Greg also edited the tv series, THE GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE, adapted from the film by Steven Soderbergh.

Maestro
2024/01/08
Editor - Michelle Tesoro, ACE MAESTRO editor Michelle Tesoro is no stranger to cutting movies directed by actors.  In fact, it was while she was working with actor Sean Penn on his film FLAG DAY, that Penn turned to Michelle and told her that he just texted friend Bradley Cooper that she was a "goddess in the cutting room".  Clearly that pitch worked as Cooper entrusted Michelle with the editorial duties for his much-anticipated biopic.

The Color Purple
2024/01/01
Editor - Jon Poll THE COLOR PURPLE editor Jon Poll was sure they had the wrong guy when his agent told him they were interested in having him come aboard as the editor.  He even joked they should probably call WHIPLASH and LA LA LAND editor, Tom Cross ACE.  While musicals were not necessarily a big part of Jon's background coming into the project, no one who sees THE COLOR PURPLE would ever question his prowess for interweaving a powerful narrative with incredible music. THE COLOR PURPLE is a story of love and resilience, based on the novel and the Broadway musical of the same name.  It is a decades-spanning tale of one woman's journey to independence. Torn apart from her sister and her children, Celie faces many hardships in life, including an abusive husband.  With support from a sultry singer named Shug Avery, as well as her stand-her-ground stepdaughter, Celie ultimately finds extraordinary strength in the unbreakable bonds of a new kind of sisterhood. Jon Poll Jon has cut a wide array of films, from such acclaimed features as Bombshell, The Greatest Showman and 2022’s Father of the Bride, to box office hits like Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and Goldmember, Meet the Parents and its sequel, and Scary Movie 3.  Poll made his feature directorial debut with the comedy drama Charlie Bartlett. Poll and director Jay Roach are frequent collaborators on many projects.  In addition to the Austin Powers sequels, Poll co-produced, edited and directed second unit on Meet the Fockers, executive produced and edited The Campaign, executive produced, edited and directed the title sequence for Dinner for Schmucks, and edited Mystery, Alaska.  Poll also executive produced Judd Apatow’s The 40-Year-Old Virgin. His editing credits include the films Forever Young and Death to Smoochy.  Poll directed, edited and co-produced on the HBO series The Brink as well. A graduate of USC’s Cinema school with a degree in film production, Poll resides in Los Angeles with Julia, his charming and lovely wife of 400 years.

American Fiction
2023/12/18
Editor - Hilda Rasula, ACE When AMERICAN FICTION editor Hilda Rasula ACE first got the script from her agent, the director attached to it seemed more than a little familiar.  It turns out that Cord Jefferson, Hilda's casual acquaintance from the backyard barbecue circuit, would be helming his first feature.  Together the pair would create a movie that's one-part social satire, one-part family dramedy and wholly entertaining. AMERICAN FICTION follows frustrated novelist-professor, Thelonius "Monk" Ellison (Jeffrey Wright), who's fed up with an establishment that profits from Black entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, he uses a pen name to write an outlandish Black book of his own, a book that propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain. Hilda Rasula, ACE When she's not helping first-time directors launch their promising careers, editor Hilda Rasula is cutting films like VENGEANCE (2022) and MOVING ON (2022), as well as tv series such as OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH (2022), SMILF (2019) and TRANSPARENT (2014-17).

Poor Things
2023/12/11
Editor - Yorgos Mavropsaridis POOR THINGS editor Yorgos Mavropsaridis was already an established editor when he first started collaborating with a young director named Yorgos Lanthimos.  At that point Lanthimos was only known for doing commercials, but by their third feature together, 2009's DOGTOOTH, the pair began to be recognized as a formidable storytelling team.  Over a decade later, they would finally take on what Yorgos Mavropsaridis considers their first true studio film, Searchlight Pictures' POOR THINGS. POOR THINGS tells the story of a young woman, Bella Baxter, who was brought back to life by her guardian, the scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter.  Initially naïve, Bella was eager to learn about the world around her, albeit under Baxter's protection.  Wanting to see more, she ran off with Duncan Wedderburn, a slick and debauched lawyer, and traveled across continents.  Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella demanded equality and liberation. Yorgos Mavropsaridis Yorgos Mavropsaridis is most known for his work with POOR THINGS director, Yorgos Lanthimos, including Dogtooth (2009), The Lobster (2015) and The Favourite (2018), for which Yorgos received an Oscar nomination and an ACE Eddie award.
