Once you’ve recorded your video, the next step is editing. There are two ways to edit. the first is called linear ot tape to tape editing. This is the analog way of editing where you are physically handling strips of tape. Often, this kind of editing happens with an EDL or edit decision list.

The digital way of editing is called non-linear editing. Some applications that edit in a non-linear fashion is Final Cut Pro, Avid, Adobe Premiere and Vegas. Non-linear allows you to be more experimental and flexible in your edits.

An analogy would be creating a mixtape vs. creating a playlist. In order to create a mixtape, you have to commit the songs you want in the order you want as you record them. When you create a playlist, you have the option to test out the order of songs to hear how they sound before calling it finished.
