Editing video on computer hard disk. Disks are non-linear format - they store the data in a random order and allow virtual instant access to any part of it Non-linear editing may be carried out with a home computer, such as a Mac or PC. The video from the camcorder passes through a digitiser and is stored on the computer's hard disk (a lot of hard disk space is required gigabytes, rather than megabytes). Appropriate software allows you to review shots, create an edit decision list, add titles and special effects, then preview the edited movie, before copying it to tape.
The computer-assisted editing of video without the need to assemble it in linear sequence. The video-editing equivalent of word processing.
Frequently this means a system of editing on a desktop computer that uses digitized video which is stored on a series of hard drives. The editing software allows the operator to make any number of editing decisions, and allows them to change those edits, even durations of individual pieces, in a non-destructive fashion. Any changes are merely rippled throughout the project, as individual clips slip and slide to compensate for the changes. This is contrasted with traditional editing which is linear, where editing started at the beginning of the program, with material added sequentially to the project, with the end eventually reached at the end of the session. Any changes in duration in the middle of a project required reassembling the subsequent edits to the end.
A process of editing film or video in which scenes can be assembled in any order, regardless of the order in which the final scenes will be viewed. Often, non-linear systems are referred to as "digital editing" since non-linear systems only function on computers.
Editing systems where any piece of video is available almost instantly without having to run through it in real time, and that can be easily assembled in any order.
The process of copying scenes from one or more video tapes to another tape in a non sequential order. Individual scenes may be trimmed during the process, and other visual and audio effects added, as well as additional sound tracks. This process normally involves stopping and restarting both the playback and record devices frequently.
Editing in a digital medium allows for edits to be made in a "non-linear" way.
System whereby the editor can jump instantly to any point of source video. Video is digitized or transferred to a computer hard drive so that editing software can have instant access to any point on the video data.
Editing video on computers with the hard disk as the storage media, rather than videotape for film. Non-linear means that the data is stored in a random order and allows access almost instantly to any part of it. Non-linear editing has the advantage that it can be carried out on any suitably equipped home computer such as a PC or Mac.
Tape editing used to be a linear process of dubbing source, or field tape to an edit master. Linear editing is gradually disappearing from television. In non-linear editing, the video and audio information on the field tape is loaded ( digitized) into bins in an edit suite’s computer drive, where the (human) editor can put them together without going back and forth through the source tapes.
(n) Video editing done on a computer. So called because shots may be laid down and re-arranged at will, as opposed to tape-to-tape editing in which shots must be layed down sequentially.
Method of editing using disk storage, where scenes can be played back in any order or length. Shot durations and positions can be changed without having to replace the following material.
The current standard in video editing, this is accomplished on either a computer-based system, or with a stand-alone unit called an editing appliance. Generally speaking, non-linear editing allows for more creativity, and changes require less effort. Because this type of editing requires the video to be fed into the editing unit in a process called “digitizingâ€, non-linear editing typically takes longer than linear editing. Here, the client usually receives a second-generation tape.
This type of editing is using the computer's hard drives in the processing of editing the production. All video has to be digitized or captured onto the computer's hard drives before editing can be accomplished. Once into the computer manipulation of the video, playback of the video, and building effects can more easily be accomplished than linear editing.
same as digital editing. The ability to manipulate sound and images in random order. If you change the length of a shot 5 minutes into a completed 30 minute infomercial, all shots adjust accordingly thereafter and do not have to be re-edited.
The computer-assisted editing of a movie without the need to assemble it in linear sequence. The visual equivalent of word processing.
