I edited the intro and key scenes from the Sports Illustrated documentary “Ciao Kobe”, exploring the early life of Kobe Bryant in Italy.
The opening sequence was designed to draw the audience in immediately, using pacing, music and carefully selected archive to build intrigue and emotion from the first frame.
It’s a strong example of how I use editing to craft narrative, guide emotion and hook an audience from the very start.
