In the Blink of an Eye by Walter Murch (2001, Paperback, Revised)

In The Blink of an Eye Is an absolute Must Read for any editor who wants to be a cut above. :) I learned so much that was simply glossed over or not even touched upon in school. There are concepts that Mr. Murch goes into that will reveal secrets about human nature itself. I.E. why do we blink? Why does a cut work? Why is seeing a movie at a public place always going to have a different effect on a viewer? What might the future of moving pictures going to look like? This book is also full of wonderful war stories and ways of working that anyone in the production field will love. Powerful, thought provoking, life changing. There are concepts in this book that you will carry with you for the rest of your life. If you're not careful you just might learn something.
