Fine-Tuning the Sequence
When you perform a dual-roller trim:
When you trim earlier, the trim removes frames from the tail, adds
frames to the head, and moves the transition earlier. The sequence
length does not change.
When you trim later, the trim adds frames to the tail and removes
frames from the head, and the transition moves later. The sequence
length does not change.
The Trimming Process
As you fine-tune your sequence’s pacing by trimming, you will usually first
focus on your audio. Then, when you get the audio timing perfected, you
can focus on video transitions and continuity. When you get the audio
timing and pacing right, then you can edit the video with a proper focus
on what should be seen and when. This first audio-centric pass is often
referred to as the radio edit.
When performing the radio edit, you should take time to analyze each tran-
sition and ask a few questions:
Does this cut work as it exists now?
If it doesn’t work, which side needs tightening or lengthening?
Does the A-side need to end sooner or later than it does?
Does the B-side need to begin sooner or later than it does?
The radio edit pass is most often performed using single-roller trims,
because it’s best to isolate and focus on one side of a transition before
addressing the other side of the transition.
Dual-roller trim:
Shortening the edit on the A side, while
extending the edit on the B side
Duration does not change
