The Bond Films / (2008) Quantum of Solace
‘Quantum of Solace’ – Official Blog Report #28
Discussion with editors Matt Chesse and Rick Pearson
Written by Devin Zydel on 30 Sep, 2008
The official Quantum of Solace blog has been updated today with two crew members from the 22nd James Bond 007 film: editors Matt Chessé and Richard Pearson.
Working on the film from their office, Pearson explains: ‘We start editing right away in whatever order their shooting, so, yeah, we might get scene 40 first and then the next scene that might come in might be scene 75.’
Chessé adds: ‘It sounds like a cliché, but the footage kind of tells you what it wants to do. I mean, you get inspired and you get ideas by what gets shot and so how that comes together and pulses–you can’t really anticipate it.’
‘Every picture has it’s own language and so finding the language for this particular Bond film, even though it’s a Bond film, it needs to be honest with the material that was shot and the performances,’ Pearson explains.
‘You see those moments and you get to become a ten year-old boy again. It’s a Bond movie!’
