Chapter 6 Editing
6-2-2 Animation Editing
Animation editing is a form of insert editing which
makes it easier to record a succession of still frames in
fixed field or frame units. The procedure for editing
after selecting animation editing is exactly the same as
for normal insert editing.
To select animation editing, use item 301. EDIT
OPERATION MODE in the VTR SETUP menu.
normal: Selects normal insert editing.
CG: Selects editing in frame units, principally for
recording computer graphics (CG).
When the edit completes, the OUT point
automatically becomes the next IN point, and the
next OUT point is set automatically with 1 frame
added.
film: Selects editing in field units for film recording.
Since the standard film speed is 24 frames/sec and
VTR frame rate is 30 frames/sec when the frame
frequency is 29.97 Hz or 30 Hz, the duration must
be alternated between 2 and 3 fields when
recording films. In the FILM mode, this setting is
made automatically. When an edit ends, as in the
CG mode, the next IN and OUT points are set
automatically.
Note
film is selectable only when the frame frequency of
the VTR is 29.97 Hz or 30 Hz.
