You can add clips to a new project directly from Video > Assemble short video, or to an existing sequence, including videos generated using supported Quick Actions.
Add a video clip using one of these methods:
Choose one or multiple videos from Adobe cloud storage or your local device by selecting one of the following options:
Select the video you want to add. The clip appears at the end of your sequence, where you can rearrange it as needed.
Select the play icon to preview the updated video.
Select and drag the clip in the sequence to a new position to change its order.
Play the sequence to review the arrangement.
Moving the playhead over a clip also selects it, making it easy to preview and adjust your sequence.
Identify the clip you want to trim, and hover along the edges of the clip to activate the trim handles.
Drag the start or end edge of the clip to trim unwanted footage.
Select the undo button to remove the trim, or drag the handles in or out to select less or more of the clip.
Play the clip to review the result.
Trimming adjusts only the clip in your sequence and does not modify the source video.
Identify a clip you want to divide and move the playhead to the point where you want to split the clip.
Select the Split icon or press S on your keyboard.
The assembler tool divides the clip at the playhead, creating two independent clips you can arrange or edit separately.
Select the clip for which you want to detect scene changes.
Right-click and select Detect cuts.
Multi-shot videos opened directly from Quick Actions are automatically split into clips and do not require manual cut detection.
Select the clip whose audio you want to adjust.
Select the Clip volume icon to adjust the audio level slider or mute the clip to exclude its audio from the sequence.
Play the sequence to review the audio levels and make sure the clips sound consistent.
