What is video editing?

In its simplest form, video editing is the process of making changes to a video clip. This could be something as simple as cutting out some parts of a single video clip in order to shorten its duration. Or it could involve a larger project containing dozens of video clips being adjusted and arranged in a sequence, and having sound, titles, and video effects added to them.

To be able to edit videos, one needs a video editing application. A video editing application is a piece of software that can run on a desktop, laptop, or mobile device that has the necessary features that allow the user to make changes to a video clip or a group of video clips. Popular video editing applications include Windows Movie Maker, iMovie, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Final Cut Pro.
