Masters of the Air: Spencer Averick editing war at series scale
Editor Spencer Averick worked on Apple TV+'s Masters of the Air, where aerial combat and character aftermath share a season. War series editing is switching between spectacle and the quiet that follows.
Large-scale war TV fails when every episode peaks at the same volume. Averick's conversation is about modulation: mission craft, then human cost.
Pair with other Kingdom of Dreams war and VFX talks for a full pipeline view.
