Today on Art of the Cut we speak with Joe Murphy about editing the new Zach Cregger movie, Weapons.

We last spoke to Joe and director Zach Cregger about their last collaboration, Barbarian. Joe’s other editing work includes features like Swallow, Don’t Come Back from the Moon and Beach Rats. His TV episodic work includes A Friend of the Family.

This week’s episode features an in-depth discussion of how to maximize a jump scare, the benefits of working with the director on multiple projects, and the value of NOT temp scoring the movie.
