This document defines and describes various terms related to video editing. It explains that clips refer to importing multiple clips into a single project. Fades transition between clips by making the screen go black and then fading into the next clip. Rendering finalizes a project by converting it to a high quality video file. Montages combine several clips with added sound to tell a story. Transitions use special effects to transition between two clips. Establishing shots set the scene at the beginning. Continuity ensures shots belong together. And color correction improves the coloring.
