It is often said that the secret to great film-making is great editing. Editing is what makes a film move up from good to great. The editor of a film or television show is responsible for imparting the right pitch, rhythm and tempo to the storytelling after the film or television show has been shot. Even a well directed film can come out as a boring affair if it is not creatively edited. Similarly, a moderately directed film can become a big hit due to the creative touch of an editor.
