LACPUG and Walter Murch
Walter Murch at LACPUG via Zoom Feb 2025
Last night, I went to the 4th-to-the-last-ever LACPUG meeting.
It was great to see some old friends, meet some new people, win some raffle prizes and watch the documentary that I donated to the crowdfunding for: Her Name Was Moviola and to listen to the Q&A with Walter Murch (via Zoom) on the big screen at the Barnsdale Art Theater in Hollywood.
One thing that stuck out in my mind is that he has been editing for sixty years. Sixty years! Thirty on film and thirty on digital formats. Unbelievable! That’s dedication and that’s love and commitment and passion.
I’ve recently become obsessed with MrBeast, well, at least interviews with him. He’s someone that’s number one in his field, many fields actually, but for sure mainly YouTube. He’s been obsessed from an early age with it and has conquered it.
I really think obsession and passion are the ultimate keys to success.
