8.9 Extending or Shortening Clips

8.9.1 Introduction

It is possible to extend or to shorten the duration of a clip previously added to the edit, by
modifying the IN or OUT point. The material from the original media will be used to
extend the clip, if available. The Overwrite or Insert modes are taken into account in
extend actions.

This can be done in different ways:

using one of the Extend editing buttons on the timeline:

,

dragging the media on the timeline itself.

The effect achieved is a slow motion or fast motion clip.
