Editing Video editing (section)

==Types of editing==
Though once the province of expensive machines called [[video editor]]s, [[video editing software]] is now available for [[personal computer]]s and [[workstation]]s. Video editing includes cutting segments (trimming), re-sequencing clips, and adding transitions and other [[special effect]]s.<ref name="Editing Video">{{cite web|title=What is video editing?|date=6 October 1997|url=http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/V/video_editing.html|publisher=Webopedia|access-date=26 February 2014}}</ref>

* [[Linear video editing]] uses [[video tape]] and is edited sequentially. Several video clips from different tapes are recorded to one single tape in the order that they will appear.
*[[Non-linear editing system]]s (NLE) allow video(s) to be edited on computers with specialized software. This process is not destructive to the raw video footage and is done by using programs such as [[DaVinci Resolve]], [[Media Composer|Avid Media Composer]], [[Adobe Premiere Pro]] and [[Final Cut Pro]].
* [[Offline editing]] is the process by which raw footage is copied from an original source, without affecting the original film stock or video tape. Once the editing is complete, the original media is then re-assembled in the online editing stage.
* [[Online editing]] is the process of reassembling the edit to a full resolution video after an offline edit has been performed. It is done in the final stage of a video production.
* [[Cloud computing|Cloud-based]] editing is the process of utilising the internet to work with content remotely, collaboratively or of a time-critical nature such as [[Real-time video editing|editing of live sports events in real-time]] using video proxies (lower resolution copies) of original material.
* [[Vision mixing]] is used when working within [[live television]] and [[video production]] environments. A vision mixer is used to cut live feed coming from several cameras in real time.
