History

•In the past, traditional film editing was done in a linear fashion.

•The film was literally cut into long strips divided by scene and take, and then glued or taped back together to create a film in logical sequence.

LINEAR

• Linear Video Editing (Tape to Tape)• Process of selecting, arranging and modifying

images and sound in a predetermined, ordered sequence.

• Linear editing is a legacy technique, left over from the early days of video production.
