Avengers Infinity War’s Timeline: 40 Layers of Marvel
By Adam Noyes
In honor to Avengers: Endgame, Avid is sharing with us the Infinity War’s timeline. The film was edited on Avid Media Composer. Check out this 40 layers timeline analysis.
2 minutes after the first official Avengers Infinity War was released, our article was up in the air, educating the users a little bit about the cameras behind the film that is considered an ARRI/IMAX 2D Masterpiece.
Two days ago, Avid retweeted about the official timeline picture of the Infinity War, as stated by Avid: “Who’s ready for @Avengers: End Game? In the meantime, here’s a look back at the timeline of @MarvelStudios’ previous installment: Infinity War”. The film was edited (obviously) on Avid Media Composer. Have a look at the tweet below.

Infinity War’s editor is Jeffrey Ford, ACE which is the editor of many of Marvel’s movies, as well as the new Avengers: Endgame.
To dive a bit into editor’s mind when he has to deal and overcome challengable multi-layers sequences, you can watch the short video below trying to explain and demonstrate the editor’s dilemma about the process of stitching the story according to the director’s mind.
In the video, Jeff explains the process of editing a complex action sequence taken from the first Avengers movie. Jeff says that the editor has a crucial part of the storytelling, trying to move and organize stuff to cover production’s inaccuracies. The editor has the privilege to hold the story and make it more precise by designing every shot and stitch it to the right place in the story (=timeline).
