 Short Course - Editing Skills on FCP - Overview








For some editing is considered as a process of making the same film second time and for others it is like providing blood and oxygen to flesh and bones for a human body to be functional. At best editing can be described as a craft that involves both technical and creative skills that allow you to make critical choices in the process of constructing a film story or narrative. Once the shooting is over it is the job of an editor to view, understand and interpret the exposed material as per the dramatic need of the narrative .The editor carries the responsibility of carefully selecting the appropriate portion of the shot material which is referred to as "rushes" and then place it in the perfect order so that the story is narrated as desired .The duration for which each moment of the film must stay on the screen is the most crucial decision made by an editor that determines the success or failure of a film.

With the booming media industry and ever increasing demand for media content it would be stating the obvious that skilled professionals are in demand. Every single unit of content produced requires a highly skilled editor to narrate a successful story.
