Today we’re talking with some of the editing team from the biggest pinkest movie to hit screens in a while - Barbie. With us for this conversation are editor Nick Houy, ACE… his first assistant editor, Nick Ramirez, apprentice editor, Maya Rivera, and post PA, Abdul Ndadi.

Nick Huoy has been on Art of the Cut before for director Greta Gerwig’s Little Women.

Nick started out as an apprentice to Naomi Geraghty. And in 2012 moved to the editor’s chair where he was an additional editor on Girl Most Likely, and edited Fairhaven, and Manhattan Romance before joining forces with Greta Gerwig for her breakout film, Lady Bird.

In an interesting bit of trivia, another apprentice editor under Naomi Geraghty was none other than Jennifer Lame who edited the other major film opening in theaters the same weekend as Barbie - Oppenheimer.

First Assistant Nick Ramirez was an editor on the documentary Stutz - co-edited with Nick Huey… He also edited the feature film Mayday and was the first assistant on Little Women and Lady Bird.

As an apprentice editor, this was really Maya Rivera’s first film in post, but since then, she also was an apprentice on The Beanie Bubble, which is out now as well!

Abdul Ndadi is the Post PA on Barbie after moving over from animation. He did animation for a documentary called Stickman: The Roosevelt Wilkerson Story.
