The term video editing can refer to:
- non-linear editing system, using computers with video editing software
- linear video editing, using videotape
Video editing is the process of re-arranging or modifying segments of video to form another piece of video. The goals of video editing are the same as in film editing — the removal of unwanted footage, the isolation of desired footage, and the arrangement of footage in time to synthesize a new piece of footage.
Prior to the 1990s video editing was done in a linear manner, using one or more video players and a separate video recorder to piece together the final video. Video editors used video controllers or mixing consoles to play segments of original footage out of order, blended, or modified by other equipment, with the result captured to a master video recorder.
Non-linear editing systems are computer-based. Footage is played into a computer and captured on a hard drive. Editors use software such as Adobe Premiere or Avid to manipulate the captured footage. High Definition video is becoming more popular and can be readily edited using Apple Final Cut Pro and related motion graphics programs. Clips are arranged on a timeline, music tracks and titles are added, effects can be created, and the finished program is "rendered" into a finished video. The video may then be distributed in a variety of ways including DVD, web streaming, Quicktime Movies, iPod, CD-ROM, or videotape. Try programs like Windows Moviemaker for amateurs.
