New York, NY — June 12, 2025 — Manhattan Edit Workshop is proud to announce the next installment of its acclaimed online event series, Sight, Sound & Story: Live—Episode XLV: Behind the Edit of “Severance.” This exciting session offers a rare, behind-the-scenes look into the editorial process of one of television’s most gripping and stylistically unique shows.
Join editors Geoffrey Richman, ACE, Keith Fraase, ACE, and Joe Landauer as they dive into the making of Season 2 of “Severance” (Apple TV+). Though each editor worked on separate episodes, their collaborative efforts helped craft a seamless and emotionally resonant season. In this panel, they’ll share how they maintained consistent character arcs, narrative pacing, and the show’s signature unsettling tone—all while working across different episodes.
Expect exclusive insights, scene breakdowns, and candid conversation about the editorial decisions that have helped make “Severance” a critical and audience favorite.
