ABOUT TARIQ ANWAR


Tariq Anwar is an Indian born British editor that in the last 30 years built up an impressive career that led him to no less than two Oscar Nominations, two BAFTA prizes and one European film award. We can safely say Tariq Anwar is one of the greatest film editors in activity.

He started out in television in the editing department of the legendary Dr. Who series in the seventies. Since then he achieved some of his highest moments working alongside Sam Mendes in films such as American Beauty (where his amazing edit awarded with an Oscar Nomination) and Revolutionary Road.

Tariq is well known for his great work in Tom Hooper´s The Kings Speech (where he was awarded with an Oscar Nomination) , Nicholas Hytner´s Madness of King George, Robert De Niro´sThe Good Shepperd and Franco Zefirelli´s Tea with Mussolini.

Tariq has more than 65 editing credits, such as “The Crucible” by Nicholas Hyter starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Winona Rider, Under Suspicion starring Liam Neeson, Ian Softly’s “The Wings of Dove” and “The Object of My Affection”, Jessica Lange “Cousin Bette”, “Focus” with William H Macy and Laura Dern, Christine Jeffs “Sylvia” with Gwyneth Paltrow and Daniel Craig, F Gary Gray’s “Law Abiding Citizen” with Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx.

Most recently he achieved great success in Mike Newell´s Great Expectations.

Anwar´s filmography speaks for itself and guarantees the high standards our participants have come to expect from FEST FILM LAB.


SCHEDULE AND WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION



It is important to note that this will not be a workshop to teach you edit with any specific software, but instead it will enhance your capacity to edit in your mind, before you actually use your tool. It is about your decision, your choices and your options as an editor.


Saturday

Introduction of the participants and Tariq, the participants will then be showed some clips of the work made by Tariq , analyzing some choices and options made in some of his works, generally sharing experiences of editing in the industry.
Topics include the following:
Focus on how to help the story flow through the editing, and best processes.
How to serve the narrative through effective editing.
How to employ narrative techniques to create tension.
How to edit your characters/ actors and performance (practical examples of problem solving and good decisions)

How to work with sound, music and special effects.
Practical exercise. The participants will be given footage (a small scene) to work two weeks before the workshop, all participants will show their work at the workshop, the group will then analyze each editing, and learn from each other’s work. Tariq will give his insight on each edited version of the footage. The participants should at the end be self-conscious of their editing choices, as well as aware of the other options taken by the other participants.
The relationship with the Director, DOP, Producer and other members of the film crew.
How to be a part of the whole process of film and television production and not merely as the final stage, becoming collaborators, not just efficient technicians.
