In the Video 1A track of the Timeline window, double-click the Boys.mov clip.

The first frame of the Boys.mov clip appears in the Source view of the Monitor window.
Before you trim, first play the clip.
3 Click the Play button ( ) underneath the Source view, or press the spacebar.
As it is, the clip is a little long, so you'll trim it somewhat. Trimming a clip involves setting
a new In point, Out point, or both. An In point is the frame at which a clip begins; an Out
point is the last frame of the clip. You'll change the Out point for the Boys.mov clip.
To get an idea of exactly where you'll trim the clip, click the Play button and look for the
4
point at which the first bike rider stops moving forward (just over 4 seconds into the clip):
That is where you'll set the Out point.
The controls for both views in the Monitor window also contain a shuttle slider, which lets
you scrub clips. Scrubbing—advancing or reversing a clip manually—lets you precisely
identify and mark events.
