We will review together this excellent article on video editing from Adobe.

Even before we review my lecture slides on Digital Video Fundamentals, let’s re-visit for a few minutes the Sneak Peak ADAge report you were to review for homework last week. As a reminder, there were two other white papers you were to review for homework from our last week’s discussions, which are posted below again for your easy reference.

White papers are produced by Companies and they showcase date on different marketplace trends. In this case, the trend the white paper is showcasing is the increasing ad dollars being spent on targeted video ads on youtube versus traditional TV buying (commercials). These reports are a few years old now; the newer ones are for sale. But these reports show you how data on different marketplaces can inform creative decisions.

ZEFR White Paper

Note who the sponsor is of this white paper and so do keep in mind the data presented may be biased and look for other sources to confirm the trends discussed. So, take a look at the following white paper from Ad Age, this one is not sponsored by single company by by Crains, a business to business publisher.
