Review answers 1 Storyboards can give you an overall feel for the flow of your project, reveal gaps, help
you weed out weaker shots, and avoid redundancy.
2 Trims leave gaps where the trimmed video used to be (or, if you lengthen a clip using
the Trim tool, they cover that portion of the next clip). Ripple edits automatically fill
gaps by sliding the clips following the edit to the left (filling the space left by the edit)
or to the right (to compensate for a lengthened clip).
3 It changes the edit from an overlay to an insert edit.
4 Hold down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) as you extract the clip, and hold
down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) again as you place the clip in its new
position.
5 I is the shortcut for an In point, and O is the shortcut for an Out point.
6 Once you find a matching edit between two clips, you can fine-tune that edit using the
Rolling Edit tool. It’ll help you find just the right place to make a seamless edit.
