What is video (pre)Editing?
(pre)editing is video editing that is done before you load your clips into your video editor. While filming your videos, use SwitchTake to mark the time of bad takes, save good takes, set in/out points as well as start organizing your clips. SwitchTake Sequencer (PC/Mac) takes the timing of these edit events and matches them with your clips. The edits are applied to build an importable rough-cut sequence with everything ready to go.
