I don't have any favorite editors because when I watch movies I only pay attention to the name of the director and the actors. But editors take a huge part in movie making. The editor I chose was James Cameron who is actually a very famous film director, film-producer, and also a screenwriter. He directed, produced, and edited many famous movies in the past and the present times. His famous movies are Piranha II: The Spawning (1981), The Terminator (1984), Aliens (1986), The Abyss (1989), Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), True Lies (1994), Titanic (1997), and Avatar (2009). My favorite films from him are Terminator 1& 2, Titanic, and Avatar. Even though Titanic was my favorite film from but my new favorite film from him is Avatar. James Cameron was born on August 16, 1954 in Ontario, Canada. He started becoming famous when he released his second movie The Terminator in 1984 which was a box office hit even it was a low-budget of 6.5 million however he still earned 75 million worldwide which made him famous. But the movie that he directed, produced, wrote, and edited along with other editors Stephen Rivkin and John Refoua was called Avatar. Which was released in 2009 and it was the Movie of the year for 2010. The film went on to become the highest-grossing film of all-time worldwide and the first film to gross more than $ 2 Billion. Avatar was nominated for nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and won three, for Art Direction, Cinematography, and Visual Effects at the 82nd Academy Awards. Avatar garnered four nominations at the 67th Golden Globe Awards ceremony, and received two awards for Best Film- Drama and Best Director. My editing style is basic and simple like everybody else who are beginners in editing . I bring all the pictures, video clips, and music in the background to make one piece of work. But I like to be neat and organized with my editing so I can make a great piece of work. Editing is very important in film-making because without editing the film-making would be impossible and the film would be a disaster. Editing id the most important process of film-making and during editing the editor can fix all the parts that are messed or fix incomplete scenes.

Nice work Anurag, you were able to give to give your own perspective as well as the background of James Cameron's career. Although It is unclear what films he actually edited. When I checked IMDb he is only credited as editor on 4 of his films:Avatar, Titanic, Strange Days (uncredited). and True Lies (uncredited) although apparently he is uncredited in the actual movie. Most likely this is because he is a co-editor.
Either way, nice work.
