Video Editing is an art.

Television Studio Editor:

Television studio editors could work at a network in a studio or for a local company as a live programming editor. These professionals may polish up a video product or work with news or sports producers, cutting together video footage or live action. Television editors are always working under a stop watch. All edited interviews, sports highlights, or news spots have to meet specific time constraints to fit the allotted slot on the program. These jobs require a degree, and many studios and stations offer internships that can later lead to jobs.

Film Editor

Film editors will usually work very closely with directors and producers to select recorded scenes for editing, engage special effects, and mix sound, music and dialogue to create a finished product. In some instances, these professionals may need to do the actual camera work, edit some material on the spot, do some basic sound work, and work closely with teams on lighting, special effects, music, sound, and make-up. A bachelor's degree will be needed to get started in this career field.

Senior video editors are the people in charge of an editing crew and may work for a company that does film, video and editing work for a variety of clients for commercial or private use.
