Brett Lyda: Video

My girlfriend plays poker with Sony hotshot Mike Schlitt. She mentioned that I was looking for work as an editor. He offered to help but first he wanted me to cut some phony trailers to see if I had the right stuff. This is what I came up with.

Sony's Mike Schlitt recieved edit #1 and liked the storyline but felt it wasn't "cutty" enough for today's market. And so he ordered up this faster version. There were some nice additions but overall I prefer the original.

On this final version, Mike wanted me to play with genres. Of course, the Howard Stern movie "Private Parts" is a comedy but what if I tried to sell it as a steamy thriller-ish piece. Another rush job, but this is what I had in mind. Try to imagine the whole thing locked up real tight as unfortunately, You Tube threw all the sound out of sync.
