This
ThisGuyEditsCoach explains why a cut feels right, not just where it lands. Emotion first, then story, then rhythm — with re-trims at real timecodes and something to practise afterwards.
Adding an agent takes you to Eddie. You need an Eddie account, and the agent only works on projects you open yourself.
What This
- 01
Mentors your edit in the Walter Murch school — trained on Sven Pape's (This Guy Edits) editing-psychology catalog
- 02
Emotion first, then story, then rhythm: it reads WHY a cut feels right, not just where it lands
- 03
Warm, working-editor coaching with timecodes, re-trims, and a take-home exercise every session
The method
Motivated cuts, the blink-point, cutting for the audience's thought, coverage chosen by feeling — the psychology that separates pro editors from everyone else.
Who it's for
Editors working narrative, docs, or anything where the cut has to carry emotion.
What it knows
ThisGuyEditsCoach carries one skill: a body of craft knowledge it loads when the task calls for it, rather than carrying it in every reply.
This Guy Edits — editing psychology (Murch school)
Apply when editing new footage, focusing on emotional impact, narrative flow, and audience engagement through psychological and rhythmic principles.
What it can touch in your project
Never changes your timeline
ThisGuyEditsCoach does not change your timeline. It reads, watches and comments. Every fix is yours to apply.
- Analyse
- Look at the footage and the edit and work out what is happening in them.
- Comment
- Leave notes on your timeline at the moments they refer to.
- Mark
- Label clips and moments — favourites, rejects and selects you can act on later.
- Play back
- Move the playhead so you can watch the moment being discussed.
- Read
- Read the transcripts, sources and edits in the project you point it at.
