Art of the Cut

Today on Art of the Cut, we speak with Greg Ng about editing the Kane Parson’s indie phenomenon, Backrooms.
Greg was last on Art of the Cut for LongLegs. Greg is the nominee and winner of numerous Canadian Screen Awards, Canadian Cinema Editors Awards, and Leo Awards. His other work includes The Monkey, Keeper, and the TV series, Bones of Crows.
We’ll be talking about how Backrooms was sculpted in the cutting room by structuring the time between the backrooms and the rest of the world, editing within a “Method cutting room,” and patiently basking in the mystery of a “Lovecraftian space.”
