CHAPTER 3: BASIC EDITING ■

Here’s an example. Let’s say that you have a picture of a woman walking down the

street. Not a particularly interesting shot, mind you. You can spiff it up with some fun

color effects! By using the Add Edit button every five frames or so, you created several

separate edits. Now you can apply the color effect to each and adjust the colors so that

the image changes colors every five frames as the woman walks. Wow! Boffo spiffo

whammo effects!

All right, maybe not the most creative thing, but you get the idea. Add Edit can isolate

parts of a continuous clip in which you can add effects or audio adjustments so that

the continuous clip no longer appears to be continuous.

Extract We already know that the Splice button makes an edit so that any edits after

your current edits are moved down in the Timeline. What if you want to remove an

edit and move everything on the Timeline backward? Enter the Extract button, indi-

cated by an icon with scissors.

Clicking the Extract button removes any marked part of the sequence and pulls any

material after it back to the first frame after the extracted material.

Lift The Lift button works like Extract, except that any material removed from the

Timeline will be replaced by a black (empty) gap, rather than having the material after

the extraction pulled up. Lift is pretty much the opposite of Overwrite.

Audio Meters

The Audio Meters on the Timeline are new features—and good ones, too. Using these

meters allows you to monitor audio at any time without having to pull out the Audio

tool and take up more desktop space.

The Audio Meter enables you to adjust the monitor level (not output levels) of

your audio (as shown in Figure 3.54); switch from input to output monitoring; adjust,

create, and play back tone; hide the meters; and adjust peaks.

Note: Audio monitoring will be discussed more in Chapter 4.
