• Sunday, May 12th

Warren Etheredge is the founder of The Warren Report, an influential film industry tip sheet and film fan club dedicated to the empowering notion that "smarter audiences make better movies!" Etheredge is president and head of development for Lockspring Pictures and served for six years as curator of Bumbershoot's 1 Reel Film Festival, the nation's best-attended celebration of short cinema. He has written and directed more than 40 plays off- and off-off-Broadway, penned five books and several short films, and written countless magazine articles on film and related topics.

RIFF is pleased to have Warren back this year.

THE KINDEST CUT
A movie's story is told three times: in the script, in production and in the editing room. And yet, editing is often treated as an afterthought by novice auteurs. If only they had learned how to stop their films from turning sour in the editing suite. Throughout THE KINDEST CUT, Warren Etheredge will introduce and explore the guiding principles and overriding theories that can make or break a film in post-production, using clips and quotes and exercises to engage and enlighten movie-makers and movie-lovers alike.
