What is "A-roll"?
A-roll refers to the primary footage in a film or video production that includes the main content, such as interviews, dialogue, or key scenes. It is the core material around which the story is built. In editing, A-roll is often complemented by B-roll, which consists of supplementary footage that enhances or provides context to the A-roll. A-roll is crucial for maintaining the narrative flow and delivering the essential elements of the story.
