Escaping Twin Flames, Episode 3, “Up In Flames” has been nominated for an Emmy for Best Picture Editing in a Nonfiction Program. The team nominated include: Martin Biehn, Lead Editor; Inbal B. Lessner, ACE, Editor; Mimi Wilcox, Editor; Kevin Hibbard, Editor; and Troy Takaki, ACE, Editor.
This particular episode was fantastic and kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. The editors spliced together footage of online events, interviews, illustrated recreations of events and photographs with incredibly smooth and oftentimes creative transitions. I particularly enjoyed how much style was put into it.
It had a cinematic quality to it that really aided the fascinating subject matter. I liked how every part of the story was organized to where it felt like a linear narrative. It is far too common for documentaries to be a bit all over the place and feel disjointed as a result so it was refreshing to see one that felt so cohesive.
