Hi Raju, Video editing plays a significant role in the post-production process. The major jobs of a video editor include editing of video, soundtracks, and film for the motion picture and broadcast visual media industries. Video editing is categorized as Linear Editing & Non-Linear Editing or Digital Video Editing. In Non-Linear Editing, video and audio data are captured to hard disk and then edited on the computer using a varied software. Digital Video Editing involves the usage of computer technology for the onscreen editing process. Digital video editors should hold a Bachelor's or master's degree in animation or media. Video editors can find placements in TV and film production advertising, studios and multimedia companies and web design companies. They can work for motion picture studios and also with independent production companies.
