Kantapat Ratanameathanon
As a film editor based in Bangkok, Thailand, I believe that the world of a film has more than one reality. My job is to bring out the best reality through my editing. I am well aware that directors love how a movie can resonate with the audience due to seamless cutting. Thus, I create subtle cuts that the audience won't notice, allowing them to enjoy the timelessness of aesthetics. The most significant part of editing is being honest with both myself and the video that I am assigned.
