We were listening to a 30-minute Musique concrète piece in electronic music comp workshop, and I decided to take a little break (breaking a cello is nice, but a meticulous dismantling? please). I walked down the hall to Jesse Cain’s office.

I asked him about his senior project and how his editing process went. I shared my woes with him.

His advice – I paraphrase: 1. Cut everything everyone tells you to. 2. Audience’s aren’t stupid. 3. Your movie’s always better than you think.

Peggy Ahwesh enters the equip room and the conversation.

Her advice – I quote: “Don’t get married too early.”
