Perez, ACE, is a co-producer and supervising editor on Euphoria, and has been nominated for ACE Eddies for the last three years, including one for the pilot of Euphoria—and was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for editing the feature film It Follows.

He also edited Under the Silver Lake, which premiered at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, and Malcolm and Marie with director Sam Levinson.

Aaron I. Butler, ACE, is an Emmy-winning and two-time ACE Eddie-nominated editor. He’s edited Kanye’s Jesus Is King and the feature JT Leroy. He also cut the Emmy-nominated documentaries Cry for Syria and American Winter.

Laura Zempel has edited HBO’s Room 104 as well as AMC’s Dispatches from Elsewhere. She recently cut Josephine Decker’s latest feature The Sky is Everywhere for Apple and A24.

The editing on Euphoria is unique and there’s a lot to discuss.

Like most successful documentary makers, Chinese-American producer/director Jessica Kingdon makes bold choices with her projects. These have included sex doll manufacture in It’s Coming!, transgender surgery in Born to Be, and a study of China’s largest wholesale market in Commodity City.

Across her relatively short career, this work has collected a number of awards. She was named as one of the 25 New Faces of Independent Film by Filmmaker Magazine and made it into the 40 Under 40 list at the 2020 NYC film festival. Her latest documentary, Ascension, earned her a nomination for Best Documentary Feature at this year’s Oscars. Ascension examines the pursuit of “the Chinese Dream” and the realities involved in fulfilling the global supply chain.

In today's Art of the Cut, we're speaking with Ryan Stevens Harris, who edited the film Moonfall alongside co-editor Adam Wolfe. As you'd expect from a Roland Emmerich feature, Moonfall is a big, action-adventure film filled with VFX and interesting editorial challenges to unpack.

Ryan discusses his rise up through the post team to the edit chair, the way all cinematic arts inform each other, the role of sound in world-building, and how he directed a feature film with something his relatives dug up from a basement in Omaha, Nebraska.
