The two basic approaches to video editing are: Mark all that apply:
- A.
Pre-Production
- B.
Post Production
- C.
Additive
- D.
Subtractive
Correct Answer(s)
C. Additive
D. SubtractiveExplanation
The two basic approaches to video editing are additive and subtractive. Additive editing involves adding or combining different elements such as video clips, audio, and effects to create the final video. Subtractive editing, on the other hand, involves removing or cutting out unwanted parts from the video to refine and enhance the final product. These two approaches are commonly used in video editing to manipulate and shape the content according to the desired outcome.Rate this question:

Editing
- B.
Sequencing
- C.
Transition
- D.
Wipe
- E.
Dissolves
- F.
Audio
- G.
Fade
Correct Answer(s)
D. Wipe
E. Dissolves
G. FadeExplanation
The three transitions used to connect different sequences are Wipe, Dissolves, and Fade. These transitions help to create smooth and seamless transitions between different scenes or sequences in a video or film. Wipe is a transition where one scene gradually replaces another by moving across the screen. Dissolves is a transition where one scene gradually fades out while the next scene gradually fades in. Fade is a transition where the scene gradually becomes black or white, either at the beginning or end of a sequence. These transitions add visual interest and help to maintain the flow and continuity of the storytelling.Rate this question:

A process in which elements of one image replace elements of another image to create a combination of both is:
- A.
Superimposition
- B.
Composite
- C.
Assembled image
- D.
Archived image
Correct Answer
B. CompositeExplanation
Composite is the correct answer because it refers to the process of combining elements from two or more images to create a new image. This technique is commonly used in graphic design, photography, and film production to create seamless and realistic compositions. By blending different elements together, a composite image can be created that combines the best parts of each individual image, resulting in a visually appealing and cohesive final product.Rate this question:

When all of each image layer is visible, this is a:
- A.
Superimposition
- B.
Composite
- C.
Assembled image
- D.
Archived image
Correct Answer
A. SuperimpositionExplanation
Superimposition refers to the process of overlaying or combining multiple image layers to create a single image where all layers are visible. In this case, when all of each image layer is visible, it suggests that the layers have been superimposed to create a composite image. The term "composite" could also be used to describe this process, but "superimposition" is a more specific term that accurately captures the action of layering images. "Assembled image" and "archived image" do not accurately describe the process of combining layers, making them incorrect options.Rate this question:

Name two shot-to-shot variations in audio that can be helped by conforming?
- A.
Microphone distance
- B.
Background Noise
- C.
In-point
- D.
Out-point
Correct Answer(s)
A. Microphone distance
B. Background NoiseExplanation
Conforming can help in adjusting the shot-to-shot variations in audio caused by microphone distance and background noise. By conforming, the audio levels can be equalized and balanced, ensuring consistent sound quality throughout the shots. Microphone distance variation can lead to differences in the volume and clarity of the audio, which can be corrected through conforming. Background noise can also vary from shot to shot, and conforming can help in reducing or eliminating this noise, resulting in a more professional and seamless audio experience.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation

- A.
Subtractive
- B.
Additive
- C.
Selecting
- D.
Option 4
Correct Answer
A. SubtractiveExplanation
When you create a program by removing unwanted material, it is referred to as subtractive editing. This type of editing involves eliminating unnecessary elements or content from the program to improve its overall quality or efficiency. It is the opposite of additive editing, which involves adding or including new elements or content to the program. Selecting and Option 4 do not accurately describe the type of editing involved in this scenario.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. AdditiveExplanation
The term "additive" refers to the process of adding selected material to create a program. In this context, starting with nothing and gradually adding the necessary components or elements to develop a program is considered an additive editing approach. This method involves building upon a blank canvas or starting point and incrementally adding the desired elements to achieve the desired outcome.Rate this question:
