About this episode
Assistant Editor, Riccardo Bacigalupo Assistant Editor, Riccardo Bacigalupo seemingly started off his career already in the high speed lane of post production. Working alongside editor, Eddie Hamilton, Riccardo was able to cut his teeth on such films as X-Men: First Class, Kick-Ass 2, Kingsman: The Secret Service, Kingsman: The Golden Circle and Mission Impossible: Fallout . It was his experience on those films, coupled with his deep workflow and technical knowledge acquired through assisting Eddie, that made him an ideal post team member for the tv series, Pennyworth . Pennyworth explores the early life of Bruce Wayne's (AKA Batman) butler, Alfred Pennyworth, as a former British SAS soldier who is forming his own security company in a kind of "alternate universe" London that has a distinct 50's/60's vibe and an action movie flair. But working at such high speeds in the most demanding environments can take its toll on anyone in this field, and Riccardo details how he's learned to work under such challenges; finding a balance between life and work that will set him up for a long and rewarding career in creative editorial.
