The latest in the Star Wars saga, Han Solo’s origin story is told with plenty of action and humour at the hands of veteran director Ron Howard. “Solo: A Star Wars Story” is released in cinemas today. Cheryl had the pleasure of working as an additional editor on the exciting project alongside editors Pietro Scalia and Christopher Rouse.

Cheryl is featured in Steve Hullfish’s book “Art of the Cut: Conversations With Film and TV Editors”. The book is a “virtual roundtable discussion” combining information, techniques and stories from over 50 editors with a wide variety of experience. Hullfish drew from the many interviews in his “Art of the Cut” series and assembled them into a hugely useful resource for editors and aspiring filmmakers.

Art of the Cut is available on Amazon.co.uk.

The Loneliest Time screened at the St Albans Film Festival over the weekend. After the screening Cheryl joined Producer and Actor Dan Poole in leading a masterclass with the audience. Many great questions about filmmaking, editing and the industry were asked and answered inside the beautiful Odyssey cinema.

Cheryl has recently finished work on Dresden Pictures film Biopunk. This concept film explores a dystopian future, and is just a taste of the larger feature film the makers have planned. Director Liam Garvo and producer James Heath were both wonderful to work with. It’s so great to see filmmakers with such ambitious and creative ideas.
