The script editor will work closely with the [[Screenwriter|writer]] at each draft of the script, giving the writer feedback on the quality of the work, suggesting improvements that can be made whilst also ensuring that practical issues like show continuity and correct running time are adhered to.

Video editing

Video editing is the process of manipulating and rearranging video shots to create a cohesive and compelling story. It involves trimming, adding, and manipulating clips, adjusting audio levels and effects, adding transitions, and enhancing visual effects to create a polished final product.

The primary goal of video editing is to create a visual narrative that is engaging, informative, and entertaining. It can be used in a variety of contexts, including film and television, advertising, social media, and personal projects.

There are many video editing software options available, ranging from simple mobile apps to advanced desktop programs. Some popular video editing software options include Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and iMovie. These programs offer a wide range of features and tools to help you edit your videos, from basic trimming and cutting to advanced color correction and visual effects.

Video editing requires creativity, attention to detail, and technical proficiency. A good video editor must be able to work with a wide range of footage, understand pacing and timing, and have a keen eye for visual storytelling. With practice and experience, anyone can learn to edit video and create compelling content.
