1.5. Getting Started with Video Editing

If you need to trim from the beginning or end of a video clip (or another piece of media),
hover your mouse over the left or right edge of the clip in your timeline until the trim tool

shows. Then, click and drag the edge of your clip forwards or backwards to trim off
the unwanted portion.

If you need to cut out a section in the middle of a video clip, drag the playhead to the start

point of the unwanted section and press the scissors icon to split the clip, then drag the
playhead to the end of the unwanted section and press the scissors again. Now that the

unwanted section is on its own you can select it and press the delete icon to remove it.
