Determining How Much Space You Need

The amount of disk space you need depends on the specifications of the video format
you are using for editing. In some cases, you can capture video at a lower quality
(which saves disk space) for rough editing and then recapture only what you need at
higher quality to create the finished movie. This process is known as offline/online
editing
. For more information, see Volume IV, Chapter 5, “Offline and Online Editing.”
