In todays generation, Editing is quick/cheap and also easy to use.


Analogue Technology . . .
  • Initial Editing of all films was done with positive copy of the films, Negative film workprint.
  • This was done physically cutting and pasting together pieces of film, Using a splicer and threading the film on a mchine.
  • In the past, the use of film positive allowed the director to do as much experiment as he or she wished, Without the risk of damaging the original.
Limitations . . .
  • Had to be very skilled to do edit properly
  • Fake like: Didnt seem realistic
  • Splicing damaged the original, The loss of quality.
  • Analog tape can be erased or destroyed accidentally and this can happen at the worst time.
