If you select the Ripple Edit, Shifting Trailing Clips option, you’ll enable the clip to make space for itself. That’s because the clip can’t move the next clip to make room for the new duration when you change these settings. By default, if you make the clip longer than the space available, the speed change will have no effect. If there’s another clip immediately after this one on the Timeline, shortening a clip will leave a gap.

Once the clips are unganged, you can also change duration without changing speed.

The Speed/Duration command can change the playback speed for a clip in two very different ways. Changing the speed/duration of a clipĪlthough it’s more common to slow clips down, speeding up clips is a useful effect as well. We’re going to review fixed speed changes, the time-remapping feature, and some other options that let you make clip playback speed. It can be an effective way to add drama or to give the viewer more time to study or savor a moment.

Slow motion is one of the most often used effects in video production. A Fit to Fill edit is just one way to change clip playback speed. You might change the speed of a clip for technical reasons or for artistic impact. See other books, videos, and excerpts from Maxim Jago.
