Is it ok to delete original video file after importing?

I have been adding my video files into iTunes. I have now imported about 150 videos in iTunes, and the original video files are still in my Movies folder. Can I delete the original files in Movies and still be able to play them in iTunes? Does iTunes make a copy when you import?

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)
