Learning Event 3:
DESCRIBE AND IDENTIFY THE ELEMENTS USED IN A MULTIPLE-SOURCE EDITING SYSTEM
1.
You should be aware of the ON-LINE and OFF-LINE editing modes.
a. ON-LINE produces the final master copy that is used on-the-air.
b. OFF-LINE produces the preliminary tape, or workprint copy, which is
not used on the air.
2. You should also be aware of the two types of address code systems, the
pulse count system, and the Society of Motion Picture Television
Engineers/European Broadcasting Union (SMPTE/EBU) time code system.
a. The pulse count system counts the control track
pulses
and
translates these into elapsed time and frame numbers (fig 2-1).
