<description>&lt;p&gt;Today, on Art of the Cut, we discuss Baz Luhrman’s “fever dream” &lt;em&gt;EPIC: Elvis Presley in Concert&lt;/em&gt;. I say, “fever dream” because Luhrman won’t label the film as either concert film nor documentary. The film was edited and produced by Jonathan Redmond.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Redmond has been on Art of the Cut before for Luhrman’s scripted narrative feature, &lt;em&gt;Elvis&lt;/em&gt; (2022).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jonathan has edited the film &lt;em&gt;The Great Gatsby&lt;/em&gt; and TV series, including &lt;em&gt;The Get Down, Wonders of Australia’s National Parks, Romeo &amp;amp; Juliet: A Monkey’s Tale, &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;Pelicans of the Ghost Lakes&lt;/em&gt;. He was also First Assistant Editor on &lt;em&gt;Moulin Rouge.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our discussion today includes: honing the film down from over 100 music cues, creating dynamics, and the final key to unlocking the film.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can read along with this podcast on the BorisFX website and also see the trailer, clips, and lots of exclusive photos!
