In video, a non-linear editing system (NLE) is a video editing (NLVE) or audio editing (NLAE) system which can perform random access on the source material. It is named in contrast to 20th century methods of linear tape and film editing.
I wish I had told this very simple differentiation between video and digital video to my students before they started recording their Final Day Project Interview Video. When they asked me what's the difference between the two, I did explain everything but the notion of Linear and non-linear! ok, I forgot.
It is very important to know the difference between the two. I think the day is gone, where we used to record videos and publish them on cds or just watch them from our TVs and load the cassessts! of video in our shelves. Nowadays everyone is looking for a way to record their memories online, so they can always have access.
With Digital Video, and a simple program like Windows Movie Maker, all those dusty piled up pictures and the ribbons of movie can easily be published online, with no dust! What's more friends and relatives all over the world can see them as well. If you want to cut some pieces because you didn't look good on that piece, it's just a piece of cake! Just keep the best part and decorate it with some background music, effects or transtions and voila!
