In the simplest terms, editing consists of screening clips, deciding exactly what portion of a clip you will use, and placing it in a sequence in a specific order. In this lesson, you will screen your clips in the Viewer window. You will then mark the portion of the clip you want to use. Finally, you will edit the marked selections to the Timeline using two types of edits, Overwrites and Inserts. In addition, you will open, close, and duplicate sequences.
