You know when a scene just hits and you can’t explain why? That’s editing.
Ilse sits down with editor and assistant editor Alexander Gonzalez to talk about the invisible craft that shapes everything we feel on screen.
From working on Sender with Jamie Lee Curtis and Britt Lower to navigating SXSW like a pro, Alex breaks down how pacing, instinct, and collaboration turn raw footage into something unforgettable.
They get into improv as accidental life training, networking without the weird pressure, and why being honest about where you’re at is actually the best strategy.
Also discussed: coffee as a personality trait, animation dreams, and a sleep paralysis story that might make you rethink staying over at anyone’s house.
Follow Alex @alexgedit (and his projects @toincossfilm & @stophittingyoursister_film) and keep up with his upcoming projects if you like your storytelling sharp, thoughtful, and just a little unhinged.
