History of video editing
In 1895 the Lumiere Brother invented cinematography. At the
time their was only one camera and they would have to change position ever-time
they wanted to change scene. One of the first video that was edited was a "Arrival of a train" This was revenlutionary for its time because no-one had seen anything like this before. This involved using just one camera and no colour.[1]
One short movie in later times was 'The Great Train Robbery' This was based in the western time scale. This was made by Edwin S. Porter in 1903. This was one of the first short movies that had been made, during this time no-one knew about the different types of films that could have been made. This was first published in America.[2]
The execution of Mary Stuats was a short movie that was made for the execution of mary queen of scots. The practitioner behind this was Thomas Edison. This short film lasts for 18 seconds and it consists of the different types of editing only using one camera is one of them. [3]

Video Editing techniques
This shows you about the different techniques that are you used in video editing this include a bit about the 180-degree rule and the different types of shots that are used.The 180-degree rule
The 180-degree rule is used to make sure that the audience can interact and so that they can connect with any unseen area behind and infront of the subject in question. If you break this rule you lose continently.[4]
The different types of shots
The different types of shots include:
Close Ups- This shot makes the actors face full in frame. This is normally used when a actor is doing a very dramatic close up or someone is saying a speech
Long Shot- A shot that has either a actor or a object top to bottom frame
Establishing Shot- This type of shot is allocated to the beginning of the scene. This normally comes after the aerial shot
Over the Shoulder Shot- This shot is normally shot behind a characters shoulder. A good example of this was in 'The Godfather'
Tracking Shot- This is a elegant shot for a camera, this shot normally follows behind the subject behind, alongside or infront of the subject
Two Shot- This is a shot which has to actors or actresses in frame with each other. this is normally used when people are besides each other not facing each other
Crane Shot- This is exactly what it says, a camera being placed on a crane and makes it go up and down.[5]

Parallel editing
This means to cross over different types of scene with similarities to them. [6]
