Abstract
An editing apparatus forms an output video signal by effecting an editing processing on a plurality of video signals such as first and second input video signals. There are generated first and second video clips representing a starting position and an ending position set to the first input video signal, third and fourth video clips representing a starting position and an ending position set to a second input video signal, and fifth and sixth video clips representing a starting position and an ending position set to an output video signal. The first, second, third and fourth video clips are displayed on the basis of time information attached to each video clip so as to express a positional relationship of the first, second, third and fourth video clips on a time axis. Also, the fifth and sixth video clips are displayed.
