Chapter 3: Basics

3.1 Editing philosophy

Your system operates in a non-linear fashion. This means that

every recorded scene can be accessed instantly. The system

does not have to spool tape to access the desired scene.

Direct access is achieved by recording the video onto a hard

drive and not onto tape. On tape, scenes can only be ac-

cessed by time-consuming spooling.

A hard drive is actually a storage device from the ﬁeld of com-

puters and it is used for storing programs (software) and data

(video and audio). Hard drives store data differently than tape,

because hard drives have a freely movable read/write head,

which can move directly to any area of the drive similar to a

record player needle, but in a very short period of time.

This means that there is practically no waiting times, even

when jumping from the beginning to the end of a video. This

technique is called "random access". Random access (or

direct access) is the fundamental characteristic of a non-linear

editing system. It makes possible direct and total control over

the recorded data.

The following principles apply to Bogart SE video editing:

1. Recording of the desired material (video and audio), either

completely or in designated sequences, which is stored in

independent projects.

2. Splitting of the recorded material into individual scenes that

can each be named as you choose.

3. Trimming of the individual scenes (setting the In/Out points

to ignore unwanted footage).

4. Sequential ordering of the trimmed scenes on the story-

board, in the order that you designate. You can also add Insert

Scenes, (the overlapping of video without affecting the original

audio).

5. Selection and use of Transition effects (e.g. crossfade, dou-

ble exposure, etc.).

6. Selection of Image Processing effects (e.g. solarize, shar-

pen, etc.) to add to scenes or entire sequences.

7. Titling of the storyboard (the addition of text in different

fonts, sizes, colors, and effects).

8. Audio mixing with up to six tracks for original sound, com-

mentary, background music and sound effects

9. Recording of the ﬁnished project out to DV tape or, export

to different multimedia ﬁles or to CD, DVD or Blu-ray (option)

And of course, you can record and edit more footage at any

time. There is no set sequence. This list serves only to outline

the basic concepts involved.

3.2 The user interface

Your system makes use of the Bogart SE user-interface, which

contains various elements. These elements are explained here,

although they are fairly obvious.

Light buttons can be selected (clicked). Dark buttons cannot

be activated. Using certain functions may cause some buttons

to de-activate, meaning they cannot be used.

Some buttons may appear usable but at the moment have no

corresponding function. If they are clicked, a red, crossed-out

circle appears indicating that no function is currently possible.

Help Texts (bubble help)

Navigate the screen pointer across a user-interface element

that is only represented by a symbol, and let it rest there for

a little while. After about one second, a Help Text will appear

just above this interface element, telling you what the function

does.

As soon as you move the pointer again, the Help Text will

disappear.

This function is available for most symbols; however, it is not

available within add-on products.

You can de-activate the Help Texts by going to `System Set-

tings´ and then `Additional Settings`.

Buttons

Such buttons are simple ﬁelds containing a text caption that

describes the function they perform. They cause something to

happen when they are clicked on, and they are usually clearly

labeled. (e.g. Clicking with the left trackball button on the "De-

lete" button causes the selected scene to be deleted.)

Selection buttons

These buttons are indicated with three small, white horizontal

bars in the upper right corner. Clicking with the left trackball

button opens a list of different options. You then scroll through

the options with the trackball, stopping on the desired option,

which is highlighted. Clicking on the left trackball button then

activates the selected option. Clicking on the right trackball

button cancels the operation.
