“I want to keep telling interesting stories. Stories that are captivated by people. I hope that audiences watch the content I work on and have the same connection that I did as a young man going to the theaters and watching these movies that really shaped me and influenced my life for the better.”

So many seem to not care as much about the storytelling anymore

I agree! I’m glad people like Eric are out there focusing on that aspect

I am a fan of One Piece, so I was so excited to read this.

This was such a strong interview because it balanced technical insight with genuine emotional curiosity about storytelling.

The sections about editing “One Piece” were especially compelling because they revealed how much emotional calibration happens beneath large-scale spectacle. The discussion around Laboon’s eye movements, timing, reaction shots, and intercutting really highlighted how editing shapes feeling as much as narrative.

I also appreciated how thoughtful Eric Litman was throughout when discussing collaboration, restraint, pacing, and audience immersion. His perspective on editing as the central hub connecting performance, sound, visual effects, music, and story gave this conversation real depth.

The interview also carried a quiet respect for cinema itself that stayed consistent from beginning to end. That sincerity made the entire piece resonate.

Fantastic work. Insightful, detailed, and deeply engaging for both film lovers and creatives building anything collaborative.

Great article! Loved the first season, just could not get into the new one … but that often happens to me with seasons 2.
