sequence In Point and Out point. If only part of a clip appears between the sequence In point and Out point, Premiere Pro will extract only that
part of the clip from the sequence, letting the rest of the clip remain. After extracting, you can paste the extracted frames anywhere in a sequence.
1. Use the controls in the Program Monitor to specify sequence In and Out points.
2. In the Timeline, click the headers of the tracks from which you want to extract frames to target them.
3. Click the Sync Lock boxes in the headers of all tracks you want to shift when the gap is closed. The clips in tracks where Sync Lock is
disabled will not shift.
4. In the Program Monitor, click the Extract button .
The frames that are extracted are placed on the system clipboard.
5. Click the header of the track into which you want to paste the extracted frames to target it.
6. Move the playhead to the location where you want to paste the extracted frames.
7. Select Edit > Paste.
Delete clips and close gaps simultaneously
When you delete a clip, you can close the gap it leaves behind at the same time. This is called a ripple delete.
1. In the sequence, select the clip or clips you want to delete. To select more than one clip, Shift-click the clips or drag a marquee over them.
2. Select Edit > Ripple Delete.
Delete gaps between clips
When you delete space between clips in a Timeline, all clips in all unlocked tracks shift according to the duration of the gap. To prevent a track
from shifting during a ripple delete (or any insert or extract edit), lock the track. Alternatively, turn off Sync Lock on those tracks that you don't want
to shift.
In a Timeline, do one of the following:
Right-click (Windows) or Ctrl-click (Mac OS) the gap between two clips, and choose Ripple Delete.
Select the gap between two clips, and choose Edit > Ripple Delete.
Select the gap between two clips, and press Delete.
To find more gaps in the sequence, see Find gaps in sequences and tracks.
If the ripple delete command fails, you may need to lock tracks that contain conflicting clips along the edit point.
To delete gaps between multiple clips, see this video tutorial by Ann Bens.
Find gaps in sequences and tracks
You can find gaps of at least one frame in a sequence or a particular track of a sequence. Choose Sequence > Go To Gap and then choose one
of the following options:
Next in Sequence Finds the next gap to the right of the CTI that spans all tracks.
Previous in Sequence Finds the next gap to the left of the CTI that spans all tracks.
When one or more tracks are targeted, you can also choose one of the following options:
Next in Track Finds the next gap to the right of the CTI on the selected tracks.
Previous in Track Finds the next gap to the left of the CTI on the selected tracks.
The CTI moves to the position of the next or previous gap. The zoom level of the Timeline does not change, even if the gap is not visible at the
current magnification.
Note: Once Premiere Pro finds the last gap, choosing Next In Sequence, or Next in Track does nothing. Similarly, once Premiere Pro finds the
first gap, choosing Previous In Sequence, or Previous in Track does nothing.
Franklin McMahon demonstrates a few features for preparing a movie for export and review, including the “go to gap” command in this video on
the Layers Magazine website.
Copy and paste at the playhead
You can copy and paste one or more clips at a time. The relative spacing (both horizontal spacing in time, and vertical spacing in tracks) of clips is
maintained. You paste and paste insert copies of clips into tracks you first target, at any new playhead locations.
1. Select one or more clips in the sequence, and choose Edit > Copy.
2. Click one or more tracks you want to target in the track header area of a Timeline panel.
3. In the Timeline panel, position the playhead at the point in the sequence where you want to paste a copy of the clips.
