Inside the Cut: The Art of Film Editing
Peter Lambert apprenticed as a trainee editor on Love Actually (2003) before becoming an assistant editor on Children of Men (2006), directed by Alfonso Cuaron, and Body of Lies (2008) starring Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio, directed by Ridley Scott. Peter's big break came when he was asked to edit The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009), and has since edited a number of movies, including A Better Life (2011), Now is Good (2012), X + Y (2014) and Woman in Gold (2015), starring Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds. Peter will explore the art of film editing and discuss career paths in the film industry with his former tutor, Prof. Alan Marcus. The event includes an audience Q&A and is followed by a reception.
