Â
Â
New York, New York – April 17, 2014 – Manhattan Edit Workshop (MEWShop), the cutting-edge authorized digital training destination for post-production and content creators, today announced the all-star list of guest speakers and panelists for its special one-day event, Sight, Sound & Story, held on June 14, 2014 at the French Institute in mid-town Manhattan. “Sight, Sound & Story is one of the few events that brings together the community to celebrate the art of post-production. This year, we're pulling out all the stops. We'll see film scenes evolve and discuss that process live with the editors who shaped them. We'll also screen key scenes from The Wolf of Wall Street – from simple production sound to the final surround mix – with the team who crafted it. And to close this year’s extraordinary show, Michael Kahn, A.C.E. will look at iconic scenes and share stories from his more than 30-year collaboration with Steven Spielberg,†says Josh Apter, founder and president of Manhattan Edit Workshop. "From box office blockbusters and sports docudramas to the golden age of television, Sight Sound & Story is a celebration of creativity – not to mention a huge networking party – that will appeal to movie lovers, seasoned professionals, fledgling editors and students alike.â€
