A project is a file that contains all the media files needed to create a video, such as videos, audio, images and text files. A project can be saved at any time and reopened later to continue editing.

A movie can be one single video clip or a combination of clips and photos. It can also include music, titles, transitions and much more.
Each movie can be exported individually as a video. Your project can be thought of as a type of drawer into which you can put multiple movies that will be edited together and burned to the same disc.

Objects are the individual units of the movie. There are different types of objects: Videos, photos, titles, transitions, decorative elements, audio (sound).
