Append clips to your project
A simple way to add a clip to your project is an append edit, in which you add one or
more clips to the end of a project or storyline.
Append clips to your project in the Timeline
1 Select one or more clips in the Event Browser.
2 To add the clips to the Timeline, do one of the following:
Choose Edit > Append to End (or press E). Â
Click the Append button in the toolbar. Â
If there is no selection, the clip appears at the end of the primary storyline in the
Timeline. If a storyline is selected, the clip appears at the end of the selected storyline.
Insert clips in your project
An insert edit places the source clip so that all clips after the insertion point are
moved forward (or rippled) in the Timeline to make room for the clip being added. No
clips are removed from your project. An insert edit makes the project longer by the
duration of the inserted clip.

Before edit
You might use insert edits when you want to add a new shot in the beginning or the
middle of your project. You can also use an insert edit to interrupt the action in an
existing clip with the action in the newly inserted clip. The action in the original clip
then resumes after the inserted clip.
Note: You can use three-point editing to make insert edits. For more information, see
“Three-point editing overview” on page 308.
Insert Event Browser clips in the Timeline
1 Select one or more clips in the Event Browser.
2 Move the playhead to the point in the primary storyline or a selected storyline (or
make a range selection) where you want to insert the clip.
