Film Cutting Is a Difficult and Important Step in Movie Making

A section in the huge cutting room in the Paramount studios in Holljuvood is shown here. In this room the film is assembled and cut to its proper footage. Frank Lawrence, film oditor-in-chief of the Caddo Company, considered the acc cutter in Hollywood, is pictured in the inset.

One Snip Too Many May Ruin a Good Picture: Many Women Employed. This is the eighth of a series of twelve articles for dealing with movie lrom the inside. BY DAN THOMAS NEA Service Writer HOLLYWOOD, Cal., April 26. Ruined in the cutting room! How often these words have been heard around Hollywood's film factories! What the speakers mean is that an otherwise good picture has been ruined by poor cutting. One might think that when the cameraman’s work is done, a picture is practically finished. On the contrary, it is just getting well under way. The next step, and an important one, is the assembling and cutting of the film. Anywhere from 20.000 to 150,000 feet of film are dumped into a cutting room and the film editor, or cutter, gets busy. His job is to assemble the mass of celluloid into chronological order so that it tells the story and then cut it to the desired footage, usually from 7.000 to 10.000 feet depending upon the importance of the picture. Short subjects, of course, are much less, varying from 1,600 to 2,000 feet. Film editing is one branch of the industry that welcomes women. Film editors-in-chief are nearly always men. But under them are dozens of women and girls who

wield their scissors with considerable cleverness. Ordinary program pictures are given to a staff cutter as an unassembled mass of celluloid. He, or she, then assembles the film and cuts it to within four or five reels d.ooo feet to a reel) of the desired length. At this point, the film editor-in-chief, director and supervisor all take a hand in deciding just which scenes will be eliminated. And until the picture is pronounced finished, they watch with considerable vigilance every snip of the scisosrs. The film editor-in-chief himself usually supervises the cutting of specials. They are considered too important to be left to the judgment of the assistants. Considerable difficulty often is experienced by the cutters in getting the film down to its proper length. Sometimes entire sequences are lifted out. This in itself is a ticklish job as that portion of the film must be eliminated in such a manner as to assure the remainder of the picture running in smooth continuity. It is fascinating to watch experienced cutters work. They wind the film from one reel to another so rapidly that one wonders how they can see what is on it. But to their experienced eyes it is the same thing that we see on the screen, only in the inch and a half by three-quar-ters of an Inch size. A motion picture actually is nothing more than a series of still pictures following in such rapid succession that the characters appear

Apparently, they stop the film and cut out pieces here and there without much thought. But actually they are cutting at exactly the right place. Two of the tiny' stills one way or the other might interrupt the smoothness of the film. After a film has been cut almost to its proper footage, it is ready for the sub-titles.
