Lifting and Extracting

A simple cut in the timeline means when you just cut out a section or clip of a video. When you cut, the other clips in the timeline will stay right where they are. A ripple edit is when you want to delete something and you want all the clips to replace where you just did your cut. You do this by clicking on the right side of the mouse and . When you ripple delete, the other clips to the right of the deleted clip shift in the spot where the ripple deleted clip was preformed. Lifting and extracting are two ways to cut a clip at one time. To do this, you go on premire pro and set you in & out points where ever you want to cut the video. Then you either click the extract or lift button on the program panel.Lifting is like leaving a gap in the middle and not moving the other videos from the right to the left, while extracting is like cuting the clip out and moving the clips on the right into the gap , in terms of what happens to the other clips in the timeline. This is an example of an extract edit. I decided to extract the two clips where I did because it cuts out the boring parts in the video.

Insert

This is an example of an insert edit. An insert edit places a clip in
the video and when that clip ends, the clip ends where the video left off. To do this, you place a clip any where you would like in the video and press the ctrl button while you do this. I decided to place the 2nd clip where I did because it made you see the big jump and see her expression after it.

The difference between an overlay and an insert is that when you use an overlay when you want to replace a certain part of the video and you use insert you use it when you just want to add a clip in without replacing any of the main video. You would use an overlay when you want to cut something out of themain video, while you'd use an insert edit when you just want to add something without replacing anything. In this case the overlay edit works better because there is alot of dead time in the video and you can use the overlay to shorten it and give it a better feel to the audience.

Overlay

This is an example of an overlay edit. An overlay places a clip in a certain point in a video while the video is continuing. To do this, you place the clip wherever you want it to be in the video. While the 2nd clip is playing, the main video is still continuing until the 2nd clip is done. I decided to overlay the 2nd clip where I did because it keeps the audience thinking what happened.
