tomwilson23 - @Cory_Bird Ask Naveen Andrews to sort it. 3:51 PM Apr 8th in reply to Cory_BirdAnd as the series, I’m horrified to say, begins to wind down…

LOST_BOSS - @mjgoldman @davidAKAice when editing do work off the same script as the actors, or do you have a different more techinal script? 1:20 PM Apr 8th
mjgoldman - @LOST_BOSS EXCELLENT question! On set is a script supervisor who takes an ordinary, plain-white paper script and notates it with lotsa' info 2:14 PM Apr 8th in reply to LOST_BOSS mjgoldman - @LOST_BOSS ...including specfic actions the actors do to help keep continuity from one take to another, but also a list of takes & ... 2:15 PM Apr 8th in reply to LOST_BOSS mjgoldman - @LOST_BOSS ...descriptions of each setup, and any takes that the director preferred. When it comes to actually editing the scene though, ... 2:17 PM Apr 8th in reply to LOST_BOSS mjgoldman - @LOST_BOSS I'll check it before I start for any notes, then put it aside & cut based on the footage itself. I may check the script again... 2:18 PM Apr 8th in reply to LOST_BOSS mjgoldman - ...to clarify a story point, but otherwise, I mostly study the film. There's no script w/ "cut here, cut here" notes. 2:24 PM Apr 8th LOST_BOSS - @mjgoldman awesome thanks for the very detailed answer! you rock. Follow up, is it your job to mix in audio too? 2:28 PM Apr 8th mjgoldman - @LOST_BOSS I'll do a rough audio cut with dialog and temp sound fx and temp music; but there's a whole department that cleans up the sound & 2:31 PM Apr 8th in reply to LOST_BOSS mjgoldman - @LOST_BOSS adds new line recordings, hundreds of sound fx and "small noises" (footsteps etc) which make the sound rich; and mix in Giacchino 2:32 PM Apr 8th in reply to LOST_BOSS mjgoldman - @LOST_BOSS Dozens of people work just on making th sound rich; they're quite amazing & I'm delightfully suprised when I see the mixed show 2:34 PM Apr 8th in reply to LOST_BOSS

Guess it's time to go home . . . . Steve Semel -- turn out the lights when you're done. 12:32 AM Apr 9th
LOSTGraft - @mjgoldman Question. What's the process for building the Previously on Lost? Do producers usually want specific scenes? Do editors decide? 11:31 PM Apr 8th mjgoldman - @LOSTGraft The producers ask for certain "beats" from previous eps. Usually our assist.s pull and edit the pieces then make changes w/ prods 12:37 PM Apr 9th in reply to LOSTGraft mjgoldman - I get DVD the AM it airs after R crack post super Jamie Wheeler checks 4 errors RT @Loster21: Do you see the finishd product before it airs? 12:27 PM Apr 9thWOW!
