He must work closely with the director in order to gain a complete understanding of the story. He has to lay out the imagery and synchronize the sound which may include voiceovers, the soundtrack or added sound or visual effects. An editor uses digital systems to edit the films. “Film editing that is done well is not noticeable because the cuts are seamless or done for artistic effect”
