Research into Editing

Before you begin to edit for yourself you need to understand the process of editing, where it has come from and its development through time. 

1. Research the history of editing from the early stages of cutting film, through linear editing and on to non-linear editing using computers (make sure you use key words to help you). 

• Write up your research, giving specific examples from films or television programmes that demonstrate the styles and techniques that you have researched. 
• Create a simple but clear timeline of editing. Use images to support your writing, make is brief but concise.
