In my experience, editing is sitting in a stuffy room with Dan Fryer for several hours, trying to put stuff in a pleasing order, and inexplicably laughing at misaligned cross-fades and fragmented soundwaves because the confinement starts sending us odd.
This bloke talks like he’s the protagonist in a contemporary American novel. He even starts his first sentence with the word “So…” and imbues the whole thing with pseudo-intellectual drivel. It’s like reading “Special Topics in Calamity Physics” all over again.
I hope he stays in his editing suite forever.
