Jamie Selkirk

Editor

Jamie Selkirk is the Academy Award-winning editor of Return of the King, the final episode of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. His working relationship with director Peter Jackson stretches from Jackson's first feature Bad Taste through to the present day. Selkirk helped found special effects company Weta Workshop, and Wellington's Camperdown Studios.

...the effects were an integral part of the film and were required to put the audience into Tolkien's world, but the story was and should always be foremost in the editing process. Jamie Selkirk on editing The Return of the King
