FactualWEST 2020

Any episode of TV is only as strong as its weakest scene. That’s why, when delivering a cut, you need to make every scene a showstopper. But what do you do when the footage just isn’t there? You need this scene to get your story from A to B, but the coverage is weak, the main players are out of focus, and there is no conflict happening between action and cut… How do you take this dud of a scene and turn it into something not only passable, but entertaining? And how do you balance making the scene feel 'real', without crossing your ethical lines?
Join veterans Andy Bely and Dylan Wertz for this conversational workshop taking you behind the edit suite door and showing you how to polish that turd into television Gold… well, television Bronze at least.
