Timeline Playback, Navigation,
and Editing

The Timeline provides you with an interface for navigating
through your project, selecting shots to grade, and limited
editing.

The Timeline and the Shots browser (in the Setup room) both provide ways of viewing
the shots in your project. However, while the Shots browser gives you a way to
nonlinearly sort and organize your shots, the Timeline provides a sequential display of
how all of the shots in your program are arranged in time. In this chapter, you’ll learn
how to use the Timeline to navigate and play through the shots in your program, as
well as how to perform simple edits.
