In this episode of Between Two Pints, Rob sits down with professional editor and writer Shaun Lang for a deep and hilarious dive into the world of post-production, indie filmmaking, and finding your voice. Shaun shares how he rose from assistant editor to cutting feature films with names like Seth Green, and what it’s really like working with Avid versus Final Cut or DaVinci.

They talk Canadian cinema, hidden gems like Blackberry and The Holdovers, and the magic of using Soviet lenses and Pro-Mist filters to create that nostalgic fantasy feel. Things get wildly creative as Shaun pitches a dream film: a supernatural bike rave movie set in Vancouver featuring warlocks, rising seas, and a showdown against West Coast billionaires.

From steel drum editing rooms to the gritty texture of film grain, this episode has everything you’d expect from two filmmakers drinking beer and geeking out about the craft.
