ABSTRACT
Cutting Up Those Shots Whether you begin the selection process as part of logging and capturing your material, or you wait until your material is captured before beginning to make your selections, you have to begin at some point to make the decisions that will keep some material and reject others. Part of selection process, particularly if you’re doing it on the computer, is to organize your material; so this lesson is about selection, and more than that it’s about organization. Without organization you can edit a simple 10-minute video, or you can assemble long pieces of a home movies to make a video, but if you want to make a video of a greater length or greater complexity, you and your material have to be organized. That’s the subject of this lesson.
