CGMFX | VFX | Visha Chander | Video History

History of Video Production, Formats & Editing

Dating back to the early years when VHS and Betamax tapes dominated the Film, Home Entertainment Industry, Video Editing software was very scarce, my first video editing using VHS to VHS comprised of having x2 VCRs connected to VCR Mixing Deck to create Adverts with retro visual graphics similar to Atari Consoles and Nintendo. The launch of Windows 95 was the success having Video Software and Capture cards to digitise all types of video formats, and embed high-end graphics, titles, transitions, audio effects and transfer to VCD (Stage 1). Unfortunately, VCD would require depending on the length of the video multiple discs to play. DVD however when this came on the market allowed me to convert videos in the space of 4GB and in HD formats.

Blu-ray on the other hand was the perfect format for video editing as we can now use 25FPS 720 / 1080 Interlaced or Progressed video files for clear images and quality Dolby Digital Sound or DTS. 3D on the other hand failed to take off in the industry due to the early implementation of the technology clashing with the analogue to digital cross-over worldwide, I was involved with some smaller projects to create passive 3D video content for devices. 4K UHD introduced the best quality in image and sound for all devices including Streaming, Playback and Recording, and from here I decided to use the H.265 format which is faster and creates small video file sizes for my video editing and production.

U-Matic Sony | CGMFX | Visha Chander
SONY U-matic - Media Press Kits

Surprisingly even today film studios i.e., Universal Studios still use the U-matic tape format to release press-kits to broadcasters, with content of the film trailer with instructions and information about the counter-timing and broadcast instructions.

I have full experience and knowledge of the U-matic machines, as I have used the system to send video signals from production tapes directly to a video mixer unit and then ready for either broadcast or video editing.

U-matic tapes carry the highest quality video data and audio information, and has been used to convert classic films to high-end quality films today.
