{Which type of film editing do you want to learn?
|type="()"}
+ Editing dramatic scenes.
|| Wikiversity Film School offers a class in film editing.  It will teach you
about editing conversations from dramatic scenes.
- Documentaries and event video.
|| Wikiversity Film School does not teach documentary film editing.  
This kind of film editing is very different from editing a scripted drama.  
Therefore, you should '''not''' take the editing course.  It will only 
confuse you since the rules of narrative dialog editing are almost the exact 
opposite of documentary film editing.
- Corporate Video and multimedia.
|| Wikiversity Film School does not teach editing of corporate video.  
This kind of film editing is very different from editing a scripted drama.  
Therefore, you should '''not''' take this editing course.  It will only 
confuse you since the rules of narrative dialog editing are very different 
from editing corporate video.
- Broadcast video.
|| Wikiversity Film School does not teach broadcast video editing.  
Using synced video camera which are switched in real time is very different 
from editing film shot with a single camera from various camera angles.
