Producing and reweaving an off-line edit - P3(b)

The timeline panel is where your video takes shape. By dragging items from the project panel or source monitor and placing them in the desired order, you create a sequence of clips and events which play in the timeline from left to right.

In timeline, we are able to adjust edit points, making clips shorter or longer, or stretch them over time. There we also can create multiple layers of video, e.g. titles, superimposed images, etc., multiple layers of audio, e.g. voiceovers, music, etc. We are also able to add transitions, filters, special effects. When the editing have been finished, we can play the timeline back in real time or export it in a variety of formats.


The screenshots below show my timeline. You can see that all the shots are named.





Continuity editing is the predominant style of film editing and video editing in the post-production process of filmmaking of narrative films and television programs. The purpose of continuity editing is to smooth over the inherent discontinuity of the editing process and to establish a logical coherence between shots. This is a style of editing that requires the director to try to make the film reality as much like the audience’s reality as possible. This means the film is trying to recreate what the world around us is and trying to make it easier on the audience to comprehend and understand the action happening on the screen.

Continuity editing of my video is shown below.
