Today on Art of the Cut we speak with Nathan Schauf about his ACE and Annie-winning editing of the Oscar-winning Sony Pictures Best Animated film, KPOP Demon Hunters currently available on Netflix.

Nathan’s other work includes Overwatch: Origin Stories, World of Warcraft: Harbingers, and additional editing on Penguins of Madagascar, among many other projects.

Today’s discussion includes how the movie itself rejects ideas that don’t work for it, how animation sometimes has intercutting that isn’t scripted, and finding the right spots to take the foot off the gas pedal for JUST a moment.
