The correct terms used when referring to two different rolls of footage are: **A-Roll & B-Roll** - **A-Roll**: The primary footage, usually of interviews or main action. - **B-Roll**: Supplemental footage, supporting visuals used for cutaways, context, or texture. The other options refer to different concepts in video editing: - Cuts & transitions: Editing techniques. - Linear & non-linear: Editing workflows. - Primary & Secondary Roll: Not commonly used in this context.
