During the process of video editing, or as a video editor recording and editing feature documentaries, what are the fundamental procedures or what are the basic elements? Well, there is no doubt that you should prepare yourself with a video editing program like Adobe Premiere Pro/DaVinci Resolve, and source materials such as videos, photos, and audios. Even though you’ve got a professional editing software, or had abundant editing media files, you may still face the serious problem: How to import your desirable or favorite footage from a feature documentary to an editing program like Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve for rough or final editing?
