The third volume of the widely acclaimed Art of the Cut focuses exclusively on documentary editing, bringing together the experience and insight of more than 100 of the world’s best documentary editors.

Continuing his work from the other volumes, Steve Hullfish has carefully curated extensive interviews with the most experienced professionals in their field into easily digestible topics and categories. Following a filmography that introduces the different projects and their editors, the book weaves excerpted interviews into a virtual round-table discussion of the processes and essential elements of editing a documentary. These discussions are structured around the three major skillsets required of an editor: technical, artistic, and collaborative.

With the breadth and depth of expert insight from a diverse set of voices, this book is an invaluable resource for professional and aspiring editors who want to improve their skills and succeed in the field documentary editing.
