Video editors transform raw clips and video footage into high-quality finished videos used to inform, engage, and inspire their audience. They use specialized software applications and editing tools to merge content from multiple sources and add pictures, graphics, visual effects, voice, sound effects, and music. A Video Editor is tasked with taking the raw footage shot by a film crew and director and turning it into the final product. This means following an outline, script or shot list and assembling the footage into one cohesive video or film. Often in video and film work, there are many camera angles and takes recorded. Video editing is the art of manipulating and combining video files to create a completed video project. Video Editors will cut together film clips, alter and correct sound mixing, add digital effects, and make other essential technical changes to video files.
