Hi Nick

To move a clip in the timeline just click on it to highlight it and then drag it to its new position. If you are placing it within a movie clip you will need to split the clip to make room for it.

Clips in the timeline default to the left, therefore all clips must sit next to another or in other words you cant have a clip then a gap.

I hope this helps

Umm.. Right. I understand what you mean. but say i want to put a title clip at the start of a video.. or before a clip. How do i put it infront of the clip? i seems to just go over the clip that is playing if you understand me?

Thanks

Nick

Hi Nick -

If you notice what he does at about 1:45, it will help to answer your question, along with Robert's suggestion.

OK Nick

With your video in the timeline. Go to the media room (clapper board) you will see a button saying "all content" click on this button and select "colour boards". When you see a black colour board, drag it down and place it to the left of your movie.

Then put your title in the title track, exactly under the blackboard. Then click on the colour board that you have just inserted and go to "duration" just above the timeline. Make the duration the same as your title duration.

The result will be BLACK SCREEN WITH TITLE - VIDEO

I hope this helps

Robert
