History of Editing
Film editing started from short films that were shot from one angle and one camera only. back then this was an amazing achievement but with one shot this meant there was no editing needed the first ever short film was made in the 1890s the longest films dint even reach a minute up until 1903 when the film "The great Train Robbery was made this film lasted 12 minutes long and it was the longest film ever made at this time. The film used brand new techniques that were never done before. The techniqes used were cross cutting, camera movement, doible exposure, composite editing and location shooting.
After this film cross cutting became the norm as it was a better way to edit your films. But the people who made the great train robbery never came up with this technique, there have been many theories that Frank Mottershaw created the technique with his film Daylight Burglary. The first ever people who started editing techniques were David Griffiths, Eisenstein and Lev Kuleshow.
Kuleshov was one of the first people to come up with theories about editing techniques. Kuleshov argues that when you are building a film it is the same as builing a house (Brick by Brick) this analogy is about shot by shot.
Einesstein was a student of Kuleshovs but they drifted apart because they had different ideas about film making. Einstein introduced the five methods from "word and image".
The first method is Metric this is where the editing follows a specific number of frames. and cutting to the next shot.
The second method is rhythmic
The third is Tonal
The fourth is over tanal
The final method is Intellectual
David Griffiths invented the editing techniques parallel editing and the classic hollywood style. he also used the 180 degree rule, the establishing shot and the reverse shot.
In the 1970s to the beginning of 1980s more video experiments were introduced like the Time Based correctors and digital video effects units. this is when digital got introduced. the first ever digital film that got made was called "Harry" but the technology could only make the film last up to 80 seconds of effects.
In 1991 Adobe introduced there first ever editing software called Adobe Premiere 1 this was only released for the Mac
At this stage of editing only TV commercials could be edited on computers this is because of hardrive capacity this stayed like this up untill the film "lets kill the lawyers" came out in 1991.
In 1993 a company called Media 100 came in and made leaps and bounds in Video compression
