After cutting two episodes helmed by Elisabeth Moss — including the actor’s directorial debut, “The Crossing” — in the fourth season of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” Wendy Hallam Martin collaborated with the series star once again in the Hulu drama’s fifth installment. Of the four episodes the Emmy-winning editor cut this season, Moss directed three, including the opening two hours, “Morning” and “Ballet.” While Martin did her fair share of preparation ahead of the fifth season to ensure she could draw viewers back into the intense situation on which the fourth one had left off, it is Moss’ vision, she highlights, that ultimately set the tone for the premiere.
“[Moss] comes on and absolutely kills it and has a vision herself,” Martin tells Gold Derby during a recent webchat (watch the exclusive video interview above). “I mean, I watch all my dailies, from top to bottom, and her vision is very apparent in her footage.

So far, four directors from Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale” have been blessed with Emmy nominations: Kate Dennis, Reed Morano — who won — Daina Reid and Kari Skogland. But Mike Barker, an executive producer who has directed 12 episodes of the series and been submitted for all three of the show’s go-arounds at the Emmys, is still waiting his turn. Will the British director finally get his due this year with “Handmaid’s” third installment?
Five of Barker’s 12 directorial efforts were in this season, of which he will have to pick one to submit for consideration at the Emmys. While his entry is unknown at this point until official nominating ballots are released in a few months, the season closer “Mayday” will probably be — and ought to be — his choice. Why? It serves as a culmination to not only to the third season but the series as a whole thus far,...

Surprise! Which 18 nominations will ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ be fighting for at 2019 Emmys? [Exclusive]
Gold Derby was the first to report back on February 11 that the third season of “The Handmaid’s Tale” will not be eligible for the 2019 Emmy Awards. That’s because Season 3 will debut on June 5, just days after the official deadline of May 31 for this year’s eligibility period. It means that the program can’t compete for Best Drama Series and neither can 2018 nominated actors Elisabeth Moss, Ann Dowd, Yvonne Strahovski, Alexis Bledel and Joseph Fiennes. However, Hulu has still found a way to fight for 18 nominations at this September’s ceremony.

“The Handmaid’s Tale” had three episodes from Season 2 that aired on June 27 (“Holly”), July 4 (“Postpartum”) and July 11 (“The Word”). They were too late in airing for the 2018 Emmys but would qualify for 2019. Since there are only three installments (instead of the required six for a drama series), the studio...

When aliens and imaginary worlds come into play, it falls on editors to create a pace and tempo that helps us believe they’re real. Sometimes this means holding on an actor’s reaction to visual effects that they haven’t even seen yet; other times it can mean showing us just enough of the invented world to make us yearn for more.
Such shows as Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale,” Netflix’s “Stranger Things” and HBO’s “Westworld” all take us to highly stylized environments, and their editors have found ways to bring the audience into those places by carefully introducing us to their surroundings.
Editor Wendy Hallam Martin is keenly aware that “The Handmaid’s Tale” has resonance for many in the current cultural climate and also wants to pay her respects to the original text.
