Spielberg's 3 Editing Tricks That Rewire Your Brain

I think Directors can hack your brain and I dove deep to see if I could prove it. In this video I dive into books, movies and neuroscience research to find out what tricks Directors and Editors might be using to change people's thoughts and emotions. If you like movies like Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade with Harrison Ford, Jurassic Park with Sam Neil and Saving Private Ryan with Tom Hanks you will get a kick out of seeing how these edit points have been working on your emotions. I’m working on some cool stuff in the future. Free story telling tools included. Add your email to this list to get updates: https://storytelling-workshop.kit.com... -- Books: Murch, W.
