Video production is also known as videography . Technically, it is the process of creating video by capturing moving images , and creating combinations of parts of this video in live production and post-production ( video editing ). In most cases the captured video will be recorded on electronic media such as video tape , hard disk , or solid state storage , but it might only be distributed electronically without being recorded. It is the equivalent of filmmaking , but with images recorded electronically instead of film stock .
