Editing has developed overtime due to new technology being invented.
Analogue editing is the cutting together of pieces of celluloid film. Traditionally films are made up images printed on to acetate negatives. These are then 'spliced' together to form a reel of film. These are then feed through a projector at a constant speed of 24 frames a second which makes the picture appear to be moving. This is known as analogue. A Moviola was the first device that allowed a film editor to view film while editing. It was invented in 1924 by Iwan Serrurier. It was the first machine used for feature length motion picture editing.
Video Editing - Before digital technologies became available magnetic tapes were used to store information - these are known as video tapes. Video editing is the process of editing segments of these tapes using a device that mechanically puts pieces of video tape together. The film has to be edited in the correct order. This is called linear editing.
Linear editing is a video editing post-production process of selecting, arranging and modifying images and sound in a predetermined, ordered sequence. Regardless of whether it was captured by a video camera, tape less camcorder, or recorded in a television studio on a video tape recorder (VTR) the content must be accessed sequentially. For the most part video editing software has replaced linear editing.
Digital Editing - Digital media is a form of electronic media where data are stored in digital (as opposed to analogue) form. Digital editing is the use of computers to order and manipulate this digital data. There are many different editing programs such as; Adobe Premier, Avid, Final Cut Pro. Digital film making uses bits and bytes (strings of 1s and 0s) to record, transmit and reply images, instead of chemicals on film. The whole process is electronic so there is no printing or 'splicing' involved. Digital Editing soon over took Video Editing as it is much quicker and therefore cheaper. The biggest pro is that you can edit digitally in any edit.
Non-linear Editing - Editing in any order is called non-linear editing. You can edit a sequence from the end of the film before you have started editing the first scene. The process uses electronic files so it makes it as easy as cutting and passing text in a word document.
Pros of Traditional Methods (splicing or video) - thinking the editing through leading to better results, more accurate and successful film.
Cons of Traditional Methods - Big and heavy to carry, expensive, if you something wrong you can't undo it, time consuming and hard to transport.
Pros of Digital Editing - cost effective - cheaper, easier and less time consuming.
Cons of Digital Editing - technical difficulties, not thinking it through enough may not lead to better results.
