The Art & Technique of Film EditingAAA

To illustrate the function of film reels, Tom compares an editor to a train dispatcher sending multiple trains out concurrently. On a film, the editor has to task multiple assignments to other departments, such as sound mixing and visual effects. Separating the movie into smaller portions - or reels - has a practical history with film, but it continues to serve a vital role in editing today.
