Chapter 3: Basics

3.1 Editing philosophy

Your system with Bogart SE operates in a non-linear fash-

ion. This means that every recorded scene can be accessed

instantly. The system does not have to wind tape to access

the desired scene. Direct access is achieved by recording the

video onto a hard drive and not onto tape . On tape, scenes

can only be accessed by time-consuming (re)winding . Hard

drives store data differently than tape, because hard drives

have a freely movable read/write head. This head can move

directly to any area of the disk in a way that is similar to that

of a record player needle, but in a very short time. This means

that there are practically no waiting times, even when jump-

ing from the beginning to the end of a video. This technique is

called “random access”. Random access (or direct access) is

the fundamental characteristic of a non-linear editing system. It

allows for a direct and total control over the recorded data.

The following principles apply to Bogart SE video editing:

1. Recording of the desired material (video and audio), either

completely or in designated sequences, which is stored in

independent projects

2. Splitting of the recorded material into individual scenes that

can each be named as you choose.

3. Trimming of the individual scenes (setting the In/Out points

to ignore unwanted footage) .

4. Sequential ordering of the trimmed scenes on the story-

board, in the order that you designate. You can also add Insert

Scenes, (the overlapping of video without affecting the original

audio)

5. Selection and use of transition effects (e.g. crossfade,

double exposure, etc .), with preview of the effects, and when

you like what you see, the effects can be rendered, even in the

background, if necessary

6. Selection of image processing effects (e.g. solarize, sharp-

en, etc .) to add to scenes or entire sequences

7. Titling of the storyboard (the addition of text in different

fonts, sizes, colors, and effects)

8. Audio mixing with up to six tracks for original sound, com-

mentary, background music and sound effects

9. Recording of the ﬁnished project on DV/HDV tape or, export

to several multimedia formats on external storage media or

CD, DVD or Blu-ray. And of course, you can record and edit

more footage at any time. There is no set sequence. This list

serves only to outline the basic concepts involved.

3.2 The user interface

Your system makes use of the Bogart SE user interface, which

contains various elements. These elements are explained here,

although they are fairly obvious. To use a function, click on the

appropriate button. Light buttons can be selected (clicked).

Dark buttons are inactive and cannot be clicked. Using certain

functions may cause some buttons to de-activate, meaning

they cannot be used. Some buttons may appear usable but at

the moment have no corresponding function. When they are

clicked, a red, crossed-out circle appears indicating that no

function is currently possible.

Help Texts (bubble help)

Navigate the screen pointer across a user-interface element

that is only represented by a symbol, and let it rest there for

a little while. After about one second, a Help Text will appear

just above this interface element, telling you what the function

does. As soon as you move the pointer again, the Help Text

will disappear. This function is available for most symbols;

however, it is not available for all add-on products. You can

(de-)activate the Help Texts by going to `Settings´ and then

`Operation`.

In a similar manner, information with respect to a scene will be

displayed when you pause the mouse pointer on a scene in the

Storyboard or in the scene bin. You will be shown information

on the indicated scene.

Buttons

Buttons are simple ﬁelds containing text captions that describe

the functions they perform. They cause something to hap-

pen when they are clicked upon, and they are usually clearly

labeled. For example, clicking with the left trackball button on

the “Delete” button causes the selected scene to be deleted.

Selection buttons

These buttons are indicated with three small, white horizontal

bars in the upper right corner. Clicking with the left trackball

button opens a list of different options. You can scroll among

them with the trackball (by rolling the ball up and down). The

currently active ﬁeld will be highlighted. Clicking on the left

trackball button then activates the selected option. Clicking on

the right trackball button cancels the operation and restores

the original situation.
