- Editor
Editor Paul Sutorius is as comfortable cutting together scenes for drama, children's adventure, horror or a documentary. Sutorius has worked extensively with director Gaylene Preston, and won awards for his editing on Preston's second feature Ruby and Rata and her making-of-a-museum documentary, Getting to Our Place.
Biography
Paul Sutorius has been nominated for editing awards on so many Kiwi film and TV productions, it's a wonder he's found time to leave the edit suite to make it to the awards podium.
Sutorius (the word is latin for 'shoemaker') began his long editing career in 1969 at the NZ Broadcasting Corporation, the forerunner to TVNZ. Given the beginner's job of splicing advertisements into television programmes, he made such a hash of it that his bosses decided it was safer to move him around the editing team, assisting where he could.

“We've cut several things together. I’m so glad to have him in the cutting room..not just because of that fantastic humanist brain he brings, and his vast cutting experience, but also his calmness and steadyness.”
