Depends what you want to do with your footage

I dont edit nothing that I drop online, but for my DVD's the stuff's heavily edited..

but there are also some scenes that I find just film themselfs you dont have to edit cause editing will just ruin the beauty of the video

Exactly. I don't intend on doing any movie making.
So for me and the vast vast majority of the new camcorder owners
editing isn't the first requirement or second.
This forum should also be a resource for video newbies of every stripe
not just the Thousands+Posters, who just want to blab on and on.

Spectate Swamp. I will shoot something uneditted. I will do what you say is a good idea because I am open minded. However, in return you must put together a clip of all your best clips with editting and music.

Do we have an accord?

I know next to nothing about editing video.
Seems your side has the much easier task.
I could make my best 20 clips available for editing
by somebody else.

Why don't you let one any single person here edit your videos together in a nice, tight video, and someone else shoot something quite impressive without using any editing at all. Then people can see both sides and both views and make up their own minds. That seems like the logical thing to do, after all arguing over thgs doesnt get anywhere.

I was wanting to make a DVD set of the 2005 White Crow video.
This footage that would be ideal for and editing no editing test.
There must be 3 or 4 hours and hundreds of short to very short clips
Some Good, some at long range, some foggy, some more shaky than others etc.
This crow looks a lot like a European Hooded Crow so its either
a rarity or a sign of climate change or just a plain old foreigner.
He even hangs with magpies. And more or less a Big Boss among Crows.

This is probably the only footage that could possibly possibly
be improved by editing. It won't be that bad of a video to watch unedited.
I'll go through my DVD's and CD's today.

He/She should be returning for the 2006 season. I want to start videoing
right from the nest building.

Where has THC gone. Off doing unedited video maybe?
or did he get banned / edited out of this discussion.
Some private messaging going on no doubt.

I was right.
I found him showing off some unedited video with his new camcorder
at night. He should try getting off the porch and moving
about.

Not quite as many clips as I thought
95 clips and 4.4 GB so it fits on a DVD
Just burning the first "WhiteCrow 2005" DVD now

uummmmmm..."Simply skip those that arn't up to par."

wtf?

Video editing really doesn't matter.

If you keep the video clips short and shoot lots of them, what's to edit?
Simply skip those that arn't up to par.
I've been actively not editing video for 3 years. It just works.

The posts have been banned, locked and terminated at most of the video forums.

In looking back, at where and what got banned, it's clear.
Not editing video, isn't what any of these forums want to hear.

Why is that? What are they afraid of?

They must have felt terribly threatened, that non-editors,
could possibly produce anything worthwhile.

The gurus don't like it. (What's to guru, when it is this simple)
The editing software companies don't like it.
The editors just hate the idea that unedited video can be any good.

I think what this guy means as editting is fancy effects and shit. Do you seriously take videos straight from tape and release them?
