7. Videos
• A renowned singer of American soil, Carl Sugan once said, “All the books
in the world contain no more information than is broadcast as video in a
single large American city in a single year. Not all bits have equal value”.
A Video is type of art and craftsmanship which captures image click
after click, frame by frame. It comprises of video and audio or could be
either one of them.
• With the beginning of the year 1951 a new technology that dazzled
everyone, was then called video tape recorder (VTR), which captures
live images and saves the captured information onto magnetic video
tape as Video. Now “What actually is a video?” and “How it is made?”
Answer to that, Video is a technology of electronically capturing,
recording, processing, storing, transmitting, and reconstructing a
sequence of still images representing scenes in motion. It is a collection
of images, audio and other data. The properties of a video includes pixel
dimension, frame rate, audio channel etc.
• Now if we see the history of video, video technology was first
developed for Cathode ray tubes, whichis also known as CRT. The first
video capturing device i.e. Video tape recorder was invented by Ampex
research team, which was led by Charles Ginsburg. Ampex sold the first
VTR for $50,000 in 1956, and videotape cost $300 per one-hour reel.

8. Videos
• Videos come with different file formats. Now the question is “What is a
file format” file format is the structure in which information is stored in a
file. When considering video files, a large amount of data is required to
depict a video signal accurately; this information is compressed and
written into a container file, all video formats are structures wrapping up
some data. There are different types of video file formats available, each
come with different extensions. Some are optimal for capture of video,
some are best used for editing workflow and some are best for
distribution.
• Video file are very complex internally, so they all need to be stored in one
of the basic container types. Some container types are AVI or Quicktime,
but within the same container types also there can be differences in the
videos considering video signal attributes, the codecs used, and the
compression method. Container extensions include AVI, MP4, MKV,
RMVB, MOV, FLV and MXF. Codec is a piece of software which creates
data inside the container, they are little helper applications that programs
uses to play video files. Without proper codec, a video can’t be played in
computer system(s). Lastly, talking about compression, videos are
compressed to lower data rates to reduce file sizes. So there are 2 types
of compression methods are there: lossless and lossy.

9. Videos
• Lossless: This compression technique compresses the file to smaller size, but when
the file is decoded or decompressed it remains unaltered.
• Lossy: As the word tells, lossy compression means you lose some image, video, or
audio information.
• Every video file has some characteristics or properties. These are:
• Frame size: This is the pixel dimension of the frame.
• The Aspect Ratio: This is the ratio of width to height.
• Frame rate: This is the speed at which the frames are captured and intended for
playback.
• Bitrate: The bitrate or data rate is the amount of data used to describe the audio or
video portion of the file.
• The audio sample rate: This is how often the audio is sampled when converted from
an analog source to a digital file.
• By the dawn of 1990 video became the ‘revolution’ and gave access to sophisticated
editing and control technology, allowing many individuals to create a video of their
own by editing, controlling and making it more interactive. Today, you can see
artists from genre creating video namely, albums, clips, movies and short telefilms.
Videos today have become an integral part for most of the companies/enterprises
to market and promote their brand or the relative products/services.
