<p>Briefly defined video editing software, noted two common types: VSE and Compositor</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Video Editing Software refers to any piece of software used to compose and/or modify video files. <br /> <br /> ==Video Sequence Editing==<br /> A video sequence editor (or VSE) is a program designed for rearranging existing media files. Filmmakers arrange the raw footage they have collected in a VSE to produce narrative cohesion, audiovisual synchronicity, and cinematic rhythm. Many VSE&#039;s also include filters to modify the appearance of video clips, and transitions to smoothly flow between them. [[OpenShot]] is a simple VSE which user&#039;s should be able to perform basic editing tasks with in just a few hours. The 3d design suite [[Blender]] also contains a full featured integrated VSE in which actions can be automated with python. [[Melt]] is a UNIX commandline tool designed for the same sort of tasks as a VSE.<br /> <br /> ==Digital Compositing==<br /> Digital compositing programs combine video and/or image files and perform algorithmic modifications to them. Filmmakers use a compositor to refine their footage aesthetically before organizing it chronologically with a VSE. [[ButtleOFX]] is an dedicated compositor application based on [https://sites.google.com/site/tuttleofx/ TuttleOFX], an open source image sequences processing framework. [[Blender]] contains a node based compositor which integrates nicely into the rest of the program. Commonly known proprietary compositing programs include [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuke_(software) Nuke] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_After_Effects Adobe After Effects]</div>
