timecoding

Timecoding is a method used in audio and video production to mark specific points in a recording with precise time references, typically expressed as hours, minutes, seconds, and frames. It allows multiple people involved in editing, viewing, or syncing media to communicate about exact moments in the footage efficiently. Think of it as a digital timestamp system that helps locate and coordinate specific sections of a production quickly and accurately, ensuring synchronization and consistency throughout the editing and post-production process.
