  • Removing from the beginning or end:

    1. Select the video clip on the timeline. You will see a red border around the clip once it is selected.

    2. To remove a portion from the beginning, move your mouse pointer to the beginning of the video. The pointer will change to a trim icon. Slowly move the mouse to the right and stop when you are done.

    3. You can also remove portions from the end in the same way.

  • Removing from the middle:
