3 Drag the start point (left edge) of the video portion of the clip to the right, effectively trimming it
with a ripple edit.
The example below shows the video start point of the close-up of the man being dragged to
the right.
This creates a J-shaped split edit, with the start point of the audio overlapping the preceding clip.
4 To complete the split edit, show separate audio for the preceding clip, and do one of the
following:
•
Drag the preceding clip’s end point to the left so that the two audio clips no longer overlap.
•
Adjust the audio (fade) level of either clip so that the audio overlap sounds natural.
5 If you want to turn off the separate audio view to “clean up” the affected clips, do one of the
following:
•
Choose View > Collapse All Clips.
•
Select the clip in the Timeline, and choose Clip > Collapse Audio/Video (or press Control-S).
