Making the first edit

6

Press the I key to mark an in point.

7

After marking an in point, play the clip for roughly 10 more seconds until the man says,
“making all the things possible.” Then press the spacebar to stop playback.

8

Again, use the arrow keys to nudge the playhead right after the word “possible”,
and press the O key to mark an out point.

TIP

You can press Option-I (macOS) or Alt-I (Windows) to clear an in point;

press Option-O (macOS) or Alt-O (Windows) to clear an out point; and press
Option-X (macOS) or Alt-X (Windows) to clear both the in and out points.

It always a good idea to verify your selected range by playing from the In point to
the out point.

9

Choose Playback > Play Around/To > Play In to Out, or press Option-/ (slash) in macOS,
or Alt-/ (slash) in Windows.

Playing the clip from the In point to the out point is a good way to see if your selected
range is correct. If it isn’t, feel free to go back and set the marks again.
