Editing- trimming, organizing clips- ASAP

Post by misschris1134 »

Hi, I have a few questions all concerned with editing my video. I have a video but I want to take certain parts out, as well as take some parts filmed at the end and put them throughout my video. When I trimmed the video and got the specific clips I wanted and put them in order, the parts from the end jus show up in succession instead of throughout the video like I wanted. Did I trim incorrectly (if so how do I trim correctly)? When I trim in "multi-trim view", how do I get those clips from multitrim to show up ont the media clip pane in the "regular view" screen? How do I get the clips to show up at different points throughout the video instead of all in one chunk? PLEASE HELP I HAVE A BIG PROJECT THAT NEEDS EDITING BY TOMORROW!

Before trimming I would use the Library manager to create a new library in which to hold the clips.
Then drag the video down onto the timeline and select the multi trim function. this creates several thumbnails which will now replace the single thumbnail previous on the timeline.
Highlight all of those clip thumbnails and drag them up to the library. You can now treat those thumbnails as if they were all seperate individual videos.
