The Montage: A New Approach to Editing Feature Films

Chester L. Schuler

Five characteristics of a well-designed editing system are discussed. These include removal of the creative person from the production process, freedom to rearrange edited blocks of material, display of edited material, ability to generate trial drafts, and storage of finished material in a computer for transfer or archive. The design approach for the Montage editing system is described within the perspective of these objectives.
