Increased use of audio-visual technology can be linked to expanded internet access and embracing of home entertainment.

Each film or video has a running idea during production. The idea is based on the goal of those funding production. One can describe it as the story that has to be told through specific clips. The editor is supposed to work with the resources provided to bring out the intended message. The shots, sounds and effects are combined in a particular way to deliver the message. It takes hours of replay and reviews to produce something that is admirable.

The computer skills for editors must be advanced to make the work easier. This job requires a lot of copying and pasting besides maneuvering from one folder or collection to the other. The storyboard and time-line must make sense within the limited time provided.
