Linear V Non-linear

The type of software that I am using is Non-linear. Non-linear means you can edit different sequences and move scenes around. Linear means that you can't edit different sequences. An advantage of Linear editing is that it is simple and inexpensive. Learning linear editing skills increases your knowledge base and versatility. Non-linear software is said to be more frequently used in todays society perhaps as you can change which order you want the sequence to be played. An advantage of non-linear software is that it is fast and high quality and easy to use. Again same with the linear software. Linear software you don't need to learn a lot however with non-linear there is a little more to know.

Overall I believe the non-linear software is the best to use in todays society due to the fact that you can cut out any part of a scene or move things around. You don't need to shoot in a paticular way.
