Dailies are the actual film, developed overnight and transferred to video. The videotapes are then digitized, and dropped into the editing machines. Once editing is finished, the main disks containing the digitized dailies are wiped; we only keep the list of shots and frame counts for the supercomputer to use in assembling the film.
