An early, unrefined assembly of a video that establishes structure and pacing.
A rough cut is the first real version of an edit after the assembly — the shots are in order and the story works, but timing, transitions, color and sound are not yet polished. It exists to test structure and pacing and to gather feedback before investing in the fine cut and finishing.
A clear map of the end-to-end editing workflow so you always know what to do next and why.
Pacing is not just how fast you cut — it is how every editorial decision shapes what the audience feels from the first frame to the last.
