Sharon Smith Holley - The Legacy Collection

The Splice of Life • Sharon Smith Holly

My good friend Sharon Smith Holley approached me with a possible project she wanted to shoot at Sol Gate Studios. Not knowing exactly what it would actually turn out to be I said yes. Over the past 10 years, Sharon, with the committee and its volunteers, has collected a great wealth of materials that is stored in the Guild’s basement and offsite. She plans to rotate exhibits each year to provide hands-on insight into the evolution of film editing — the only moviemaking craft originating directly from the film medium itself. She invited some movie editing legends to Sol Gate Studios and I was able to do some behind the scene shots.
