 PART – C

Ques : 5 Long Answer Type Questions:

Q:1 How export video is different from the save project?
Ans:

Export Video Saving a Project

1. Export video will change the data 1. Save Project command will keep the
to another format so that another file record by saving the document
application utilize its contents. with a file name in a given particular
format file extension.
2. This command is used once when 2. This command is used regularly when
you create a video you create a video.
3. This is the final step when we have 3. This is important to save a video or
finished editing. audio file before exporting it.
4. Selection related to resolution , 4. No selection related to resolution
quality and format are done in this ,quality and format are done while
step. saving a project.
5. The exported file cannot be edited 5. Saved project can be opened and
back. edited again and again.
6. Exported video files can be played 6. Saved projects can be opened in the
in many video players. same software only.

Q:2 What are tracks?

Ans: A track is a data storage ring that is capable of storing information. It is a place
which shows imported/added video in any video editing software or project. Tracks are
managed as per the sequence and nature of media. Track is further splitted in two
parts: -

1.Visual Track

2.Audio Track

1. Visual Track :- The visual part shows a video file including an audio file .Some times
audio and video parts put on different video and audio tracks . We can use different
tracks for different audio and video parts. All video editing software provide separate
tracks for audio and video and we can add as many tracks as we need. Tracks can be
very useful when we need to edit audio and video for a particular part. It is not possible
to put two clips on the same track in one place. If we want to include audio in our video
as well as we need to use more than one track. When we work with many types of media
like audio, voice-over and videos it is a useful, efficient and easy way to use different
tracks for all types of media. The number of tracks depends on the video editing
software. The best video editing software allows the use of unlimited tracks.
2.Audio Track:- Audio track represents sound/voice .Audio editing or audio effects
are given on this track.

Q 3) Explain the video transitions?

Ans. Video transition controls how a video clip will get displayed after a video clip or
picture has been played.This effect is implemented between two objects.We may apply
transitions between two pictures,video clips or titles that have been added in the story
board timeline.Transition runs after the end of one clip and before the beginning of next
clip,but many transition effects can also be overlapped.We have to apply transition
effects on the media files added in the tracks.Transition time can also be set as required.

Q 4) Write about the audio converter in detail ?

Ans. There are many audio file formats that can be played on a computer or other
devices.Each format can be somehow better than other.As we all know that mp3
(MPEG AUDIO LAYER 3) format is a common audio format that is widely played on
electronic devices including mp3 players,mobiles,tablets and more.

A software that is used to convert one audio file format to another is called audio
converter.this software requires codec to complete this conversion.If audio file cannot
be played on the computer then one of the 3rd party codec packs,wich are available free
of charge on the internet,can be used.

Some of the most popular audio converter software are : Xilisoft Audio
Converter,Switch Audio Converter, Ashampoo music studio,Format Factory,Freemake
audio converter and Fre:Ac

Codec: Codec is a file or program used to compress And decompress a digital media
file.The Codecs can be divided into two parts: the encoder and decoder.

CD riping : Songs on audio CDs are stored Compact Disc Audio format in tracks, and
these tracks are used when playing the audio CD and play audio of very good quality.

Encoder Settings: Audio encoder is a program or file that helps to play an audio file
format correctly and to convert to another format.The encoder is the part of codec.The
encoder uses algorithm in a special way to encode.

There are generally two types of audio converter:

(a) That uses Lossy Compression

(b) That uses Lossless Compression

Q 5) Write detail :Storyboard,timeline,titles ?

Ans: Storyboard :-It is a panel of pictures or other video clip to make a story of movie.It
shows the sequence of photos and videos clip that will be shown in the movie.We can
rearrange the pictures or videos by dragging them in the storyboard.

Timeline :- It is used to edit the timing of clips in our project.Audio clip that we added
to our movie project are not displayed on the storyboard.They can be displayed in the
timeline panel.In the timeline view ,we can also trim clips and add
effects,titles,transition and audio.

Title:-Titles help us to make our movie better by adding text based caption to the movie.
We can include titlesin the movie to indicate any type of information,such as the movie
name,release date,actor names,etc.we can also apply information effects on the titles to
make a movie more attractive.
