Cutting or splitting clips is one of the foundations of video editing.
Learn how you can remove unwanted sections of a clip in Premiere Pro.
Splitting a clip creates a new and separate instance of the original clip.
The resulting clip is the revised version of the original clip but with different In and Out points
.
Split clips on targeted tracks
Select the headers of the desired tracks to target them.
Position the playhead where you want to split the clip or clips.
Select Sequence > Add Edit, or use Ctrl + K (Windows) or Command + K (macOS).
To split all clips except locked tracks, select Sequence > Add Edit to All Tracks to split tracks in the Timeline panel.
If you want to change Effects settings over time, don’t split the clip —
you can apply keyframes to a single clip instead.
.
Remove unnecessary cuts
A through edit is a cut in a clip where there is no change on either side of the cut —
usually, it’s made by mistake.
Remove these unnecessary cuts by enabling through edits.
To view through edits, select the wrench icon at the upper-left of the Timeline panel and select Show Through Edits.
When enabled, all through edits in a sequence are shown with small white triangles.
To remove a through edit and rejoin the two sides of the clip, select the triangle and then select Edit > Clear.
-to remove multiple through edits, use shift-select with the Selection tool and then delete them-
(you can do this from the ‘selection tool’)
(shortcut is ‘v’)
