Editing table for (cutting, mounting and) screenings.


Explanation:
En la misma mesa de montaje, se examina el pietaje para revisiones, cambios. Si ese es el contexto de la frase, estamos hablando de “screenings” de “dailies” o “rushes” en el mismo “editing table”.

Hi Spanruss! Just a thought: perhaps they have several of these editing tables where the cutting, mounting and screenings take place. Not a separate table for each part of the process. Could that be the case?

Notes to answerer
Asker: My guess is that they're talking about three tables or work areas for three distinct processes.

disagree  Jennifer Levey: The source text clearly says 'mesaS', implying that the sreening is not done on the editing table.//Pse see extra context given here: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/2247305
