Greys anatomy Musings


Grey anatomy is still shot on 35 mm film, one of the last shows to be still shot on film.

Typically it takes 8 days to shoot an episode, cost 4 million $, and takes 6 weeks from start to finish.

Each day generates 2 hours of footage, and is 75 % time shot with 2 cameras.

As an editor: one looks for:

GEOGRAPHIC – where who is – wide shot
EMOTIONAL – reaction shots
STORY - information, what is conflict.

MUSIC and SOUND is a character treat it as such

As a director one tries to bring the best out of the entire crew.

The show needs 42 minutes 19 minutes and 10 frames to be exact.

Editor before editing is involved in TABLE READ
AND IN TONE MEETING (to understand what the scene is about)
