About propably the last time anything will every be edited on a Steinbeck, which I have never done, though I was probably the last class to edit on Moviolas at USC.
And it was honestly hell. Not the process and the decisions and physical cutting, but the machines, which would stick on, and destroy the negative, and had to be dived behind and unplugged. I was editing with Takashi Horie in college and I believe we even took naps behind the very loud machine.
