Principles of
Editing
What is
Editing?
Editing is the process of manipulating
and combining any written documents,
videos, audios, films to make them
interesting, understanding or informational
to create a new work.
The film editor works with the raw footage,
selecting shots and combining them into
sequences to create a finished motion
picture.
What is
Editing?
• Rearranging, adding or removing
sections of shots in video and sound in
audio clips.
• Applying color correction, filters
and other improvements.
• Creating transitions/cut between
clips.
Types of Editing

Linear editing

Non –linear
editing
 Linear Editing
In linear editing, video is selectively copied from one
tape to another. It requires at least two video
machines connected together one acts as the source
and the other is the recorder
 Linear
Editing

News departments often still use linear editing because

they can start editing tape and feeds from the field as soon
as received
 Non – linear (digital)
editing

Nonlinear video is a editing or audio editing method that

entails accessing any frame in a digital video clip. Almost
the same as the "cut and paste“ method, this video
editing style is often used in film editing.
 Significance of
⮚ editing
Editing helps us to organize
and import video elements.
⮚ It helps us to create a final
result using effects and
transitions.
⮚ It helps us to develop and
improve the visual quality
of shots.
⮚ Editing helps us in the
splitting , combining and
trimming of shots.
 Role of the
⮚Editor
Creative Editor: an individual with
significant responsibility for making
and executing decisions.

⮚Technical Editor: primarily a technician

familiar with the operation of the editing
system who executes the decisions
made by the creative editor.
