Render

Render: To create a “final” video version in video editing software that includes edits, transitions,and titles in accordance with chosen settings. From an oral history archival perspective, it is common to have to stitch together, in sequence, interviews that span multiple data files. Editors lay out the individual data files in a timeline that is then exported or “rendered.” Additional changes require a re-rendered version. [ Video Glossary ]
