A simple cut in the timeline is a removal of a designated portion of a video clip. If a cut is enforced, the surrounding video clips in the timeline stay in their current location.
A ripple edit has a similar effect as a simple cut, meaning a selected piece of a video clip is removed. One does this by right clicking the designated video clip one wishes to cut, and selecting "ripple delete." When one ripple deletes, the other clips to the right of the deleted clip shift along the timeline.
Lifting and extracting are two ways to cut the film in the program panel at one time. To do this, one must set in and out point to determine the portion of the video clip one wishes to extract or lift.
Lifting is similar to a simple cut, while extracting corresponds with a ripple delete, in terms of what happens to the other clips in the timeline.
This is an example of an extract edit. I decided to edit the two clips where I did because I felt each rider should receive equal screen time. I also felt that by cutting the clips into shorter segments, the intensity was increased and dramatic effect was added. However, I was disappointed that my video was not correctly proportioned. I noticed the size was an issue while working on this video in Mr.Cambell's classroom, but I thought it was just a glitch and it would upload properly. Apparently I was wrong. I was concerned about this video, and I remember asking for assistance. I thought it uploaded successfully, but the size is definitely problematic. Next time, I will make sure the proportioning is executed correctly, and the video is not microscopic. I realize that I get frustrated frequently at these trifles, but they are not trifles in my book. I appreciate and enjoy making and viewing videos very much and this kind of error is immensely embarrassing as well as traumatizing. Next time, I will ensure that this serious tele dramatic crime will not persist or be committed again.
