Mohamed El Manasterly is one of the Emmy Winning editors of “The Square”. This 2013 Egyptian-American documentary film by Jehane Noujaim depicts the ongoing Egyptian Crisis until 2013, starting with the Egyptian Revolution of 2011 at Tahrir Square. The film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature at the 86th Academy Awards. It also won three Emmy Awards at the 66th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards, out of four for which it was nominated.

In this video Manasterly opens up his timelines to demonstrate how he organizes the dailies by themes and characters and how to ultimately arrive at a 3-act structure for a full-length documentary.

On the This Guy Edits website and YouTube Channel may occur strong language and/or scenes with violence or sexual content. We discuss film and editing concepts and often show examples from actual films. If they happen to include scenes of a violent nature or otherwise, we may show it if necessary to discuss or visualize the specific technique or concept.

In this video, I’ll talk about three mistakes almost all beginner editors make and what you can do to fix it.
