Add and remove clips
Intro to adding clips in Final Cut Pro
You build a movie project by adding clips to the timeline in a chronological arrangement. To
suit your particular editing style or need, you can choose from a wide variety of tools and
techniques for adding clips. You can change the arrangement of the clips in the timeline at
any time.
In Final Cut Pro, you can edit your projects without worrying about maintaining clip
connection or sync. For example, when you drag a clip into the timeline, Final Cut Pro
automatically rearranges the timeline to fit each new clip without disturbing your existing
work. This is true for all kinds of clips: video, audio, titles, generators, still images, and so on.
