Podcasts about editor's roundtable

In this episode, we host a remote roundtable discussion between dialogue editors Michele Woods, Iain Anderson, Marc Specter and Vince Tennant. The panel discuss the techniques, workflows and technologies of dialogue editing for film and TV. The AMPS Podcast is presented by Owen Peters and Owen Shirley.

In this TOA Editors Roundtable, Whit poses the question of why and how we make TOA, which is entirely volunteer-run, and how it fits alongside our day jobs. We also learn why Avni’s not a lawyer, how bad at basketball Ryan is, and why poets make good copy editors. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

We’re back with part two of our Light the Wick look at the editorial process on “John Wick 3” with editors Evan Schiff, Gina Hirsch, and Matt Evans. But – surprise! – we sneak some Light the Fuse material in the mix since Schiff and Hirsch worked on “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol.” So you’ll get to hear about the nearly 3-hour cut of “John Wick 3” alongside learning that Gina was the voice of some of the computers in “M:I-4!” This is a double whammy that fans of both franchises will get a huge kick out of.

On this very special episode of Light the Wick, we are joined by “John Wick 3” editor Evan Schiff and additional editors Gina Hirsch and Matt Evans, who jumped in to help. They talk about what it was like working with director Chad Stahelski, how the movie was different before they arrived, and what, exactly, they were tasked to do. It’s a funny, fascinating peek at an integral aspect of the filmmaking process.

Jacob and I first met in college during our Purdue days and it’s been fascinating to see him grow in a career he’s so passionate about. When I first started making a list of potential people to interview, Jacob was at the top of my list since his career as a Speechwriter for the Department of Defense is vastly different than mine (or anyone else I know!). It’s a super fascinating conversation and I’m excited for you to tune in! In today’s episode, you'll find out: How Jake got into working for the government. How he fell into his current role being a Speechwriter for the Dept. of Defense. His tips on becoming a better writer. How he starts his day and what websites he first checks in the morning. The difference between working in politics and working for the government. His thoughts on political dramas on tv and how accurate it is to real life. Which political tv show that get as close to real life. One of his biggest struggles working for the government. How he prioritizes all of his work tasks he has to do. Resources he pulls from to help him start to create the pieces he's writing The elements of writing a great speech. What he thinks people misconceive about working in the government and a speechwriter. The time he felt most intimidated while working in the government. The importance of communication skills in our world today.

Listen to the Sat. Oct. 21, 2017 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. The program features our regular PANW report with dispatches on the Togo security forces killings of three people during mass demonstrations against the Gnassingbe regime; the Communist Party of China has held its 19th Congress where President Xi Jinping was re-elected as the leader of ruling party; South African President Jacob Zuma has reshuffled his cabinet ahead of the upcoming African National Congress elective conference in December; Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has been appointed as an ambassador of goodwill by the United Nations Conference on Infectious Diseases in Uruguay. In the second hour we continue our focus on 50th anniversary of the martyrdom of Che Guevara looking at the role of ABC anchor Lisa Howard in the early 1960s. Finally we rebroadcast an interview with Abayomi Azikiwe aired earlier in the week over Radio 786 Cape Town on the Editor's Roundtable program.

The B&H Photography Podcast was very fortunate to be invited to the 29th Eddie Adams Workshop this year. The annual workshop, officially sponsored by Nikon, with support from B&H, is a unique and inspiring event, bringing together 100 young photographers with some of the world’s most recognized photojournalists and editors, including thirteen Pulitzer Prize winners, for four intense days of photographic presentation and collaboration. On today’s podcast, we discuss editing for newspapers and news sites and the working relationship between photojournalists and their editors. In the first half of the episode, we speak with Nancy Andrews, the former Director of Photography at The Detroit Free Press and current Ogden Visiting Professor for Media Innovation, Reed College of Media at West Virginia University, and Colin Crawford, the Deputy Managing Editor of Visual Journalism at the Los Angeles Times. Both started as photojournalists and we chat about the differences between photographers and editors, but we concentrate our talk on how an editor can guide a photographer to improve their work. After a short break, we resume with Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Michael Williamson and MaryAnne Golon, Assistant Managing Editor and Director of Photography at the Washington Post. In addition to being colleauges, Williamson and Golon are old friends, and we discuss the working relationship between a photographer and an editor and how collaboration takes concept to completed series.

Here are some ways Rebecca Grodner has used the game: “Playing it in small groups, it can encourage shy students. In large groups, it can help you focus on specific learning needs.” “Using it as a form of assessment, or as a practice space for finding supporting evidence for one’s ideas.“ “Framing it as a game to help students learn to negotiate conflict. As a facilitator, some days I found myself helping students mediate arguments in their small groups.” http://www.instituteofplay.org/work/projects/print-play-games-2/socratic-smackdown/ Web Spotlight: Is character education the answer?

Within this issue is the monthly column, "Editors Roundtable," written by Inez Liftig. This month, Inez writes about nurturing argumentation and discourse and how it is necessary as we shift toward the Next Generation Science Standards. She then shares some observations from years of trial and error with implementing student-student interactions and argumentation in her own teaching. http://k12science.net/Podcast/Podcast/Entries/2013/8/23_Middle_School_Science_Minute-Argumentation_and_Discourse.html From the Twitterverse: #mschat every Thursday at 8:00 pm Eastern Standard Time.
