“I have listened to so many of the video editing podcasts, Once Upon a Timeline is the only one I take seriously. Yes, Paddy does promote his online classes but there is so much to be gained from listening to these episodes. He is giving first hand, very personal viewpoints on some of the more...”Read full review »

“Padding, double-talk, unedited circular wandering. The host has been talking for 15 minutes already in the ‘shot selection’ episode and hasn’t. talked. (really) about. shot selection. Maybe he’s stretching due to lack of actual content but even if that’s the case a shorter ep. would be a...”Read full review »

“In this episode, we learned about the characters and how we can get perfect shots from the beginning of the editing before even starting our editing on the timeline.
Because we are most of the time filmmakers, camera operators and directors, inside the edit — is the best place to gain your...”Read full review »

“Paddy is absolutely right - the vast majority of guidance online is instructions for technical procedures or heavily gear-focussed, with little wisdom from real professional experience. This feels like a gem. Wish I’d understood this kind of stuff 10 years ago.”

If you’re looking for a podcast about editing theory then you’ve found it. It doesn’t matter what NLE you cut on, but rather it’s all about how you cut and why you cut.”

“Once Upon a Timeline should be the first stop on an editor’s journey to becoming a professional artist. The podcast is exactly as Paddy says, a show about the craft of editing. Anyone can learn the software, but that is about 10% of what an editor does. The craft is what’s important, and that...”Read full review »

“Very compelling content and subjects presented... no fluff...
You may want to consult with an audio engineer/mixer as there is what seems like over-processing done to the audio (some muddiness in the mid-range freqs and some very annoying sibilance). All of this is easily fixed...
Cheers!”
