In-camera, linear, and non-linear editing each have their strengths. I first started editing using a linear editor over a decade ago. That's not exactly true. I edited a video using a video toaster, but didn't really know what I was doing. For a class, I used an introductory system called "Avid Cinema" which output kind of ugly video using a scan converter and a vcr. Between that time and when I started using Final Cut, I learned to used a linear editor. It was controlled by a computer, but at its heart, the system was three VTRs (professional video tape recorders). I could cut between two video tapes, a character generator, and record onto another tape. There was no capturing or transferring of video to a computer. The computer and the attached keyboard were just the control mechanism. It used a video switcher to do the transitions. If you wanted to just create titles on the beginning of a video, it was a quick way to do it. The downside was that each time you changed something you copied from one tape to another. With digital, that doesn't matter, but with analog tapes, it could get bad quickly. If you have a camera, you can do what's called in-camera editing. Saying it is simple, but doing it is hard. You just choose what you want to record and think, while you're shooting, about the story. If you're shooting a birthday party, you want to shoot the games, shoot the cake, shoot the candles being blown out, shoot the presents being opened, etc. Remember the end of the previous shot when you start the next one so that you can avoid breaking the 180 rule (more about that later) and vary the shots enough to not have a jump cut. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Th2atpXSuc

The first way to do this is by including links in the description. Make sure you include the "http" or "https" from the URL and it will be clickable.
