Video Editing Software

Video editing software is an application software which handles the pot-production video editing of digital
video sequences on a computer non-linear editing system (NLE). It has replaced traditional flatbed celluloid film editing
tools and analogue video tape -to-tape online editing machines.
NLE software is typically based on a timeline interface paradigm where sections of moving image video recordings,
known as clips, are laid out in sequence and played back. The NLE offers a range of tools for trimming, splicing, cutting
and arranging clips across the timeline. As digital NLE systems have advanced their toolset, their role has expanded and
most consumer and professional NLE systems alike now include a host of features for color manipulation, titling and
visual effects, as well as tools for editing and mixing audio synchronized with the video image sequence.
Once a project is complete, the NLE system can then be used to export to movie in a variety of formats in context which
may range from broadcast tape formats to compressed file formats for the Internet, DVD and mobile devices.
