original film - cutting reels of negatives.

16mm- low budget, cheaper, easy to edit with.

35mm - expensive, harder to use, taping film, splicing, high resolution.

Negatives - lighter areas appear dark and vice versa, usually on film, happens because of the light sensitive chemicals (silver crystals), reversed to respective complementary colours.

TV/video editing Videotape Editing

Video tape editing - Multiple VCR’s in one setup to record copies, VCR was paused and fast forwarded to points what wanted to be recorded, audio was recorded the same way, was copied from one Cassette tape to others via Multiple VCRs linked via data cables.

Multi-camera editing - multiple cameras record from different angles, edited together like other editing just with multiple sets of footage, typically more difficult without extra planning.

Non-Linear Editing

Digital Editing Software + computer editing - Can start editing anywhere, more accurate, less likely to damage the recording, examples are windows movie maker or adobe premiere pro.
