Edit Trimming Operations

Trimming
Anything you want to do to your sequence after the initial clips have been layed down.

Roll Edit
Shortens one clip while lengthening the other with a single adjustment. It doesn't matter whether clip 1 is getting shorter and clip 2 is getting longer, or the other way around; the overall sequence length doesn't change.

Ripple Edit
Modifies the edit point by changing the duration of only one of the clips involved. This changes the duration of your entire sequence.

Slip Edit
Changs both the in and out points of a single clip simultaneously. Essentially, it changes which section of the clip you are using by trimming frames off the front of the clip and adding them to the back- or vice versa. It does not change the duration of the overall sequence.

Slide Edit
Sort of a reverse slip. Rather than adjusting the in and out points of the selected clip, it changes the in and out points of the surrounding clips, allowing you to slide a clip around in a sequence.
