Rewind a range selection or clip

1

In the Timeline, select a range, a whole clip, or a group of clips whose contents you want

to rewind.

2

Choose Rewind from the Retime pop-up menu in the toolbar (shown below), and choose a

speed from the submenu.

The selection is duplicated, added to the end of the original selection, and then reversed
according to the speed choice. An additional duplicate of the Timeline selection follows the
reversed section and plays back in forward motion at the selection’s original speed.

3

If you want to adjust the speed of the rewound section or the sections that precede and follow

the rewound section, drag the section’s retiming handle to the left to increase the speed or to
the right to decrease it.

Drag a retiming handle

to change the speed.

4

Play the clip back to review the rewind effect.

Create instant replays

You can apply an instant replay to a range selection within a clip or a whole clip. Final Cut Pro
duplicates the range or clip, appending the duplicated frames to the end of the selection as a
new segment. You can then modify the speed of the new segment to achieve the instant replay
effect you’re looking for.

Create an instant replay

1

In the Timeline, select a range or a whole clip whose contents you want to use to create an

instant replay.

2

Choose Instant Replay from the Retime pop-up menu in the toolbar.

A duplicate of the range or clip is appended to the end of the selection and plays back in
forward motion at the selection’s original speed. (By default, the instant replay is set to play back
at 100 percent speed.)
