The 1990s

The 1990s was an era of great change. Many 'old' faces disappeared and new techniques and disciplines came into use. Offline editing evolved from using VHS machines to the sophisticated 'non'linear' systems of today, freeing the editor once and for all from the constraints of the machines themselves.
It also marked the arrival of digital formats. D3, first used on a major sporting event during the Winter Olympics of 1992, came of age in Barcelona at the Summer Olympics in the same year.
