The non-linear version of video editing using computers and video editing software is different from the type of video editing that involves using actual video tape. That sort of editing is known as linear editing. Video editing, however, is in all its forms a way of arranging visual elements on video into a more perfect assembly during production. By removing unwanted or unnecessary footage and piecing together the parts in a more thoughtful way, a film or movie – even a home movie – can become a much more enjoyable piece of entertainment. In the realm of home video and memory preservation, a carefully edited home movie can make your child's baseball game or birthday party a project that yields generous results: a home movie worth watching again and again, impressive to friends, family and neighbors!

Some aspects of video editing are obvious, such as trimming unwanted scenes, but what about lighting, cross-fading and other effects? If you are just beginning to consider using your computer or home software to edit your video, you probably need to learn a few basic methods before you dive in on your sister's wedding tape. In this free, instructional video series, our expert videographer will show you how to adjust lighting, match color and much more. Learn tips and tricks from a professional editor as you begin your path to your career in film! These lessons are also useful for students of film or video editing!
