Episode 95 - Jason Myers, award winning trailer editor

Jason Myers Season 1 Episode 95

I talk to Jason Myers, trailer editor (and my karate partner).
We talk about the world of editing trailers, salvaging bad films and working with Michael Bay on Transformers.
He tells us how to make a trailer, his trailer geekiness and the Golden Trailer Awards.
We talk editing sport, using music so good in trailers that they put it in the film and the worst films.
Jason, over a Japanese whisky, tells us how Tom Cruise took away his Super Bowl spot, getting to the cinema early to watch his work and the thrills - and frustrations - of how they select trailers after months of work.
