Lesson 1
Introduction to Editing in the Cut P
age
3 Drag the cut to the right until you see the hand palm down on the knife.
TIP You can perform rolling trims in the upper timeline or in the viewer as well.
4 From the lower timeline time ruler, drag the timeline so the play head is just before the
two clips on V2 and play to review the change.
Since rolling trims remove an equal amount from one side of a cut as it takes off from
the other side, the overall duration of your timeline remains the same.
Trimming a cut away on V2
Although the steps to make a rolling trim on video track1 or track 2 are identical, only
video track 1 clips perform a single sided ripple trim. Instead, single sided trimming
on video track 2 opens gaps when a clip is made shorter or overwrites the next clip
when a clip is extended.
1 In the upper timeline, move the play head to the first cutaway, the close up clip of the
two women.
It will be nicer to cut to this close up a bit earlier just after the host introduces Emma,
the chef. Trimming the close up to extend the beginning will not ripple trim the
remaining cutaway clips on video track 2 that come after it.
2 In the lower timeline, position the mouse pointer over the start of the close up shot on
video track 2.
