Multiple-Choice Action Series edited by Toby Wilkins
I was asked by longtime collaborator Ben Ketai to edit the live-action episodes of the ground-breaking X-BOX One video game QUANTUM BREAK for Microsoft. The seemingly simple four-episodes were constructed on the fly from a total of 44 interwoven timelines, comprising over three hours of content, with various outcomes and easter-eggs influenced by choices made in the X-Box One game. Heavy with visual effects, action sequences, car chases, and a stellar cast this was one of the most challenging and rewarding projects I have ever edited.
“With forty-four branching storylines and live-action narratives that weaved seamlessly in and out of gameplay, the project often left even our highest level Microsoft creatives logistically bewildered. But somehow Toby, the sole editor on the project, managed to wrangle and systematically organize al of the content. The action and drama was also extremely well cut to boot.” — Ben Ketai (director, Quantum Break)
