    The History of Video Editing


    In 1895 the Lumiere Brothers invented what is now
    called Cinematography. The process was invented by
    combining camera, printer and projector. Around the
    same time Edison Company invented a similar device
    Edisons Kinetograph.

    John Dumo
    The difference between these two inventions is that
    the Cinemtographe shoots sixteen frames per second
    whereas the Kinetograph shoots at forty-eight frames
    per second, the main advantage of shooting at low
    frames is that it uses less film was used.
    Following the Lumiere brothers George Melies
    produces Voyage of the Moon loosely based on the
    wiring of Jules Verne and HG Wells. Hi creation is one of the first to
    create special effects using hand painting and tinting.
    Shortly after in 1903 the first signs of editing are shown, for
    example the film Great Train robbery by Edwin Porter, by studying
    the reaction of his audience he found that he had discovered a new
    way of portraying a story in form of film.
    Soon after
    In 1908, The American Mutoscope and Biography Company
    employed D.W Griffith. The company was known for making film
    using a 35mm format instead of the traditional 70mm. They found
    that Mr Griffith skill in making silent movies therefor making the
    decision a lot simpler to hire him.
    1910/1920 allowed Lev Kuleshov to develop his work and therefor
    creating what is now called The Kuleshov Effect. This effect allows
    the filmmaker to use two scenes to create different emotions. For
    example if a close up scene is followed by morbid section then this
    can portray deep sadness. The same close up scene can also be
    used but instead of a morbid scene this can be replaced by a
    woman and can somehow show lust.
    Edward Dymytryk 1940 predominantly known for his film noir work,
    including Murder, my sweet made in 1944, which was loosely
    based on Raymond Chandlers novel, Farewell, My lovely. It is also
    important to note that Dymytrk was part of the Hollywood Ten, the
    ten individual denied to testify against the Soviet Union second Red
    scare.
    1969, Walter Murch is well known for his sound and editing work,
    this allowed Walter Murch to work with the great George Lucas and
    later in his career working on the God Father Part 2 soundtrack,
    which was released in mind 1970s.

    Editing Hardware, Software and


    Machines.

    Clapperboard is a mixture of film slate and
    chalkboard slate that contains information about the
    next scene. The loud CLAP is used to sync both
    sound with image making the alignment process a lot
    simpler.
    Non-linear Editing is a method of editing that
    allows the editor to choose any frame, regardless of
    sequence. This allows the editor to cut and paste a
    scene into the sequence with ease.
    Steenbeck is a company that specialises in creating
    a flat bed-editing table this allowed the editor to cut,
    process and add audio using both 16mm and 35mm
    film. The sound was edited using magnetic sound
    technology.
    The Moviola intvented in1924- was a machine that
    allowed film editors to view their film whilst editing.

    Video Home System is an analogue recording


    tape mainly aimed at the consumer level. The VHS
    cassette was developed by JVC in the mid 1970s.
    Final cut pro is software
    developed by Apple, to allow its
    consumers to nonlinearly edit film and footage on a
    digital medium. This software runs on an Intelbased mac and runs currently run on OS X 10 or
    later. This programmes allows professional level of
    editing available to the world.
