Editing Your Clips; Trimming Clips - Blackmagic Design Cinema Camera Manual Del Usuario

Using DaVinci Resolve
33
To start editing your clips, you'll need to create a new timeline.
The timeline is the stage upon which all your editing will
take place.
The 'edit' page. You can trim your clips, change their order,
move them around and add transitions between them using
the timeline editor.
Trim your clips by dragging their start and end points left or
right. The 'snapping' feature can be turned off when making
fine adjustments.
Step 3. In the library window, click on your newly added clip folder. Now simply drag your clips
from your storage folder and drop them into the media pool. If the untitled project settings
are different to your clip settings, you'll be prompted to either change the project settings
to match your clips, or leave the settings as they are. To get started quickly, click 'change'.
Now your project settings match your clips.

Editing your Clips

With your clips in the media pool, click on the 'edit' tab to open the edit page.
Now you can start building your edit!
Step 1. You'll first need to create a new timeline. Right click in the 'timelines' window next to the
folder library and select 'create new timeline'. When the dialog box appears, click the
'create new timeline' button.
Step 2. Click on the 'media pool' button above the timelines window. Now double click on a clip
to open the clip in the source viewer. Use the mouse pointer to scrub the play head in the
source viewer left and right until you find the start frame you want for the clip. Mark the
in point with the I shortcut. Do the same for the end frame using the O shortcut.
Step 3. Go to the timeline and position the timeline play head where you want your clip to
be inserted.
Step 4. To insert the clip onto the timeline, click inside the source viewer then drag the mouse
pointer across to the timeline viewer. A list of edit options will appear. Select the type of
edit you want.
Your clip will be placed onto the timeline using the edit type you selected. You'll find a description
of each edit type and how to use them in the DaVinci Resolve manual.
A faster way to add clips to your edit is by dragging them from the media pool and dropping them
directly onto the timeline where you can adjust your in and out points, position your clips, try different
plug in effects, titles, and more. This particular workflow is like using the timeline as an artist's palette.

Trimming Clips

When editing clips you'll want to trim them to include only the specific actions you want in each
shot. There are various ways, but the easiest is to adjust the clips' in and out points on the timeline:
Step 1. After adding clips to your timeline, hover your mouse pointer over the start of a clip until
the pointer becomes a trim icon.
