Performance is made in the editing room, and i've come to see the truth in that - the idea that they say performances are usually made in the editing room because what you film is the raw material. i think just going through the process of saying, "which take do we use? why is that the take we want? i want that take can you edit again, i'm not sure that's the one, i think it's this one." and just because you go through that process, i think somehow it's made me sort of more open about the [actor's] possibilities.

More From Ralph Fiennes

All three parts of filmmaking [writing, shooting, editing] contribute to rhytm. you want the script to be a tight as possible, you want the acting to be as efficient as possible on the set, and you have enough coverage to manipulate the rhythm in the editing room, and then in the editing room you want to find the quickest possible version, even if it's a leisurely paced film. i definitely in filmmaking more and more find writing and directing a means to harvest material for editing. it's all about editing.
Mean Writing Editing
The digestive canal is in its task a complete chemical factory. the raw material passes through a long series of institutions in which it is subjected to certain mechanical and, mainly, chemical processing, and then, through innumerable side-streets, it is brought into the depot of the body. aside from this basic series of institutions, along which the raw material moves, there is a series of lateral chemical manufactories, which prepare certain reagents for the appropriate processing of the raw material.

When you are acting in a film, you have no idea what scene the editor is going to choose. for instance, after you have directed, you feel more comfortable delivering a performance. because you know the real performance is put together in the editing room.

You can say something that can really help and actor and you can say something that can really get in the way of an actor's performance, kind of cut them off from their instincts and really get into their heads. and every actor's different. every actor requires something different. being an actor, for me, was the greatest training to be a writer and director.
Cutting Training Actors
My take is that acting is acting. a performance is a performance. with performance capture, if you don't get the performance on the day, you can't enhance the performance.

Keys Acting Reputation
I know this'll sound obnoxious, but acting was very much an accident for me. i didn't have, like, posters of marlon brando in my bedroom when i was growing up.
Growing Up Acting Sound
Acting, films, scripts, is literally the only thing i’m 100 percent confident in. i know what i’m doing. i just understand it, and i love it. when i’m on set, that’s when i feel the most at home and in control.
Home Acting Scripts
I firmly believe lyrics have to breathe and give the audience's ear a chance to understand what's going on. particularly in the theater, where you have costume, story, acting, orchestra.
