In Episode 19 of Talking MEWShop, the MEW crew talks again with Editor Sean Albertson, ACE! Sean discusses how processes in film editing require time and multiple iterations. The conversation dives into how AI technology is evolving, but struggles to replicate human creativity and editing styles. Sean goes over how negotiations in the film industry can be tough, especially regarding budgets. He talks about how his longstanding collaboration with Blumhouse offers valuable experiences despite challenges. They also go over how the timing of film releases impacts box office success. 

Sean Albertson's journey into the world of entertainment began amidst the vibrant arts scene of New York City. Born into a family deeply rooted in the entertainment industry—his father a versatile musician and film editor, and his mother a seasoned Production Manager and Assistant Director—Sean's earliest experiences revolved around music, acting, and the magic of filmmaking. As a young performer, he graced both stage and screen, even landing a role as an extra in the Academy Award-winning film, "Kramer vs. Kramer." Alongside his passion for performance, Sean found his rhythm in music, particularly drawn to percussion and vocals, which he honed while playing with various bands. Notable credits include contributions to iconic films such as "Warrior," "Rocky Balboa," "Rambo IV," "Truth or Dare," and “Imaginary," as well as acclaimed television shows like "E-Ring," "Cold Case," "Heroes," and "The Vampire Diaries."
