>I learned video editing in 1979 on Sony half Inch EIAJ open reel

>A source deck and editing deck were connected directly to each
>other. One had to
>manually rewind both the source reel and the recording reel a distance that
>corresponded to approximately five seconds. A special paper guide
>was taped to the
>reel to help one estimate how many revolutions of the reels were needed. More
>revolutions were needed if one was near the end of the tape. The
>next step was to
>press play on both decks. After five seconds, at the desired
>position one pressed the
>record button. These steps were later done with an editing controller.
