Interview With Editor

Hello all. I know I've been horrible at posting but it's been an insane ride for me, and there's been no time to even think. My days now are spent hunched over monitors in a tiny dark room with no ventilation and horrible climate control. So enough is enough! I'm going to open the door, order some takeout from California Wok, and take this lunch time off to interview my lovely editor Robert Hoffman.

JL: So Robert, how do you feel about coming in on the weekends and working without pay--having no life outside of this film, and being forced to spend everyday in this godforesaken room with subzero temperatures and markings on the wall of former occupants who never made it out alive?

RH: This salad is tasty.

JL: Okay then, what attracted you to this project?

RH: I really responded to the fact that it was a fresh and unique script, unlike anything I'd ever worked on before... and that I felt then and am sure now that it has the potential to reach allot of people.

(Dazed with being in the editing room too long, we both start laughing hysterically at this answer).

JL: What's the most difficult thing about editing this project?

RH: It's an extremely ambitious project. We have allot of good choices, but--

JL: Moving on then. So what are your pet peeves?

RH: Rude people. Especially those who cut other people off. And who don't acknowledge that other people--

JL: And that's all the time we have for today folks! Please tune in next time when hopefully we'll have our webcam up and you can check out Robert's naked chicken dance (a tribute to the one and only Walter Raymond Lloyd).

We love you all, and in all seriousness, we'll get Bob in this room to interview Robert proper when we get a little time to take a break. Keep the faith, and thank you for all your support!!!

Jieho & Robert

This Robert fellow sounds like a genius, and my heart goes out to him that he has to work with someone who obviously puts words in his mouth. Didn't he win an Oscar or something for some movie or other? He should. He's so awesome.

Great interview! lol
Really hope "TAIB" will be a big success. I think this ambitious movie has the potential to be very big and influential.

Hope Sarah M Gellar will have a stunning performance!

What is this Jieho . . . are you only able to collaborate with guys named Robert? :-)

And give Robert-The-Editor a break when you can... feed him well... give him a comfy chair... and by the sound of it, a sweater too!

Again: congratulations to you, DeRosa and Christopher (and of course Robert), you guys are really making it happen. Keep us posted!

Hey! I'm really looking forward to this movie. I'm not particularly sure of what it's about, but I figure you can't go wrong in a movie with its main characters named after emotions.

Good luck, and I'll be waiting patiently for more information on your movie! :D

Robert Hoffman, eh? Cool guy. After watching the latest release of "Bad Santa" and listening to his commentary, I feel like I know the man.

I can't wait to check out Robert's kickass editing on TAIB!
