At Inc. on December 16, 2022 there is an article by Carmine Gallo titled Jerry Seinfeld’s editing tip will make your presentations shorter and more concise. In it film editor Peter Holmes said:
“He’ll cull the best material and go to work on it, shaving it down until there’s not a wasted syllable … At times, he can be brutal about throwing things away in the edit, but I can’t argue with the results.”
Mr. Gallo’s three ways to edit are:
Recognize that editing is necessary but hard.
Resist information dumps.
Get help.
