Understanding categories

To understand the Categories system, you must be able to distinguish between the following elements:

The File Name that is defined for each video clip physically stored on your hard drive. A video clip is identified with the icon illustrated below, with the file name displayed underneath (as you can see in Windows Explorer).

The Values that represent the details of each clip. For example "Swing" and "Front" can be used to describe a video clip containing a swing filmed from the front in golf.

The process of classifying consists of assigning values to your video clips, i.e. labeling them.

   The Categories that group the values of the same kind.
