Episode notes

This episode, our featured guest is editor Alice Powell. Since graduating from the National Film & Television School in 2007, Alice has cut a long list of high-profile feature documentaries, and her films have screened at Sheffield Docfest, South by SouthWest, Hot Docs, the Berlin International Film Festival and the Tribeca Film Festival.

Alice likes to collaborate with producers and directors to tell stories with integrity and a delicate human touch.

Alice and I discuss her unusual pathway into the industry, how she handles hundreds of hours’ worth of footage, and last but not least the ethics of editing.
