Editing Your Media
Once you have your media in the workspace you can perform edits and
refinements to it. ‘Editing’ is a broad term that encompasses a number
of different functions: you can, for example, trim unwanted sections
from video or audio clips, increase or decrease the speed of a video clip,
or touch up your photos. This section describes all of the editing
processes that you can perform on the different types of media clips.
Note: The functions in this section can only be performed in Timeline view.
Split a Clip
You can split a media clip into two clips at the current position of the
Timeline slider. The procedure is the same for any type of clip (video,
photo, audio or effect) except for transitions.
To split a media clip, do this:
1. Select the clip you want to modify.
2. Move the Timeline slider to the position where you want to split
the clip.
3. Click Split. The clip is split into two independent clips that can be
moved or modified separately in the workspace.
Note: Splitting a video or audio clip does not delete any portion of the
content. Both halves of a split video or audio clip can be stretched back to
any length up to the original duration.
