By clicking
on the Stripview to the left of an edit point, as shown on the video track
of this Stripview, you break the end
of the previous shot, allowing you to shorten or lengthen that shot.
By clicking on the Stripview to the right of an edit point, as shown
on the A1 track of this Stripview, you break the beginning
of the next shot, allowing you to shorten or lengthen that shot.
By clicking directly on the edit point, as shown on the A2 track of
this Stripview, you break both shots, allowing you to
move the cut point up and down your edit. If you moved the cut point 4 frames
to the left the cut would happen 4 frames earlier.
Trimming can be
done with the shuttle
control, the play
buttons or with the mouse and if you wish you can trim multiple
cut
points at the same time. Clicking on Deselect or pressing stop
and unmark on the Console
will join all the points together
again. As you trim the system will display the pictures and sound of the edit
you are trimming, in real time.
