Dune Editor Joe Walker on Cutting the Acclaimed Epic

Dune marks editor Joe Walker's fourth collaboration with director Denis Villeneuve. Their resulting work rocketed to the top of the box office last weekend while also playing on HBOMax. Here, in an interview with Awards Daily's Clarence Moye, Walker talks about his collaboration with Villeneuve and how their shorthand helped overcome challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. He also dives into the Dune moments where editing played a particularly key role -- and they're not the ones you're thinking of.

Dune is now playing in theaters and on HBOMax.
