A few weeks ago just after the Toronto International Film Festival, the Bell Light Box held a screening of Apocalypse Now Redux. The Special Guest was one of the cinema’s greatest film editors, film theorists and film artists, the legendary Walter Murch. Mr Murch was on hand to discuss his collaboration with Francis Ford Coppola and the remaking of their milestone war epic into its newly expanded form.
In addition Walter Murch also gave a Special Address on “The State of Cinema,” mapping out his intriguing speculations on what would have happened had the cinema been invented in 1789, a hundred years prior to its birth.
While Mr. Murch was in town, I was contacted the Art of The Guillotine to shoot an exclusive interview him. I jumped at the opportunity to meet the legendary film editor in person.
Below you can view Part 1 and 2 of the exclusive interview with Mr. Murch. The interview was conducted by the Art of the Guillotine’s founder Gordon Burkell.
Special Thanks to Bryan Atkinson for coordinating, and editing the interview.

This was shot on The Canon 7D using Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 Lens, and my trusty old Sony Z1U.

It must have been wonderful to meet Mr. Murch.
Great interview. I cant wait for Part 2.
Great stuff Tej. The 7D produces great images. Looking forward to Part 2.
I can’t believe I missed this event!!! I would have love to be a fly on the wall.
Congratz on the exclusive.
Walter has so much to teach others! Its a shame this interview is not in HD.
Why does this interview need to be in HD? It’s talking heads, and the interview the quite long.
The size of the file to stream would be massive…causing severe lagging, and slow streaming feeds,
and nobody wants that.
Wow you should Bronze that Photo! Great stuff Tej!
Bronzing a digital photo….interesting idea!
I did not even know he was in town. You are very lucky to have met the legend!
Walter is truly a Legend! Thanks for putting this up Tej! IF you need a hand next time give me a shout!
Fantastic Interview. This must have been a major highlight in your career to meet the master.
Nice Gig Tej! Next time give me a call, I would have love to meet him!

Thanks John!
That’s awesome, he is my favourite amateur neuroscientist as well :) He discovered the blink editing method
And I couldn’t agree more about the HD… way too big and clumbsy for most web delivery
Yes. He really is a a true Master of the Trade. His book In the “Blink of an Eye” is fantastic read and provides plenty of knowledge.
