Selecting :In” to “Out” Points in Premier Pro

[Tim Kolb]

Not exactly sure what you mean by “select the in to out of a clip”…are you trying to extract a range?

I’m not an FCP editor so I wouldn’t know what the key would be, or if it even maps identically, but copy/pasting clip attributes is a normal copy and a special paste…so on a Windows machine in Premiere Pro’s original configuration, select the original clip and hit Ctl+C just like copy in any application, then select the destination clip…of course to paste the entire clip you would type Ctl+V…to just paste attributes, you’d type Ctl+Alt+V.

So…on a Mac, I’d start with those key commands substituting the command key for control and the option key for alt…but I might check the FCP key map if you don’t have a throw away scenario to test it. On my Windows machine the FCP keymap indicates that Alt+V is the paste attributes command, but I don’t have an option key…

Thanks tim,

I am talking about selecting a range… typically when I cut an interview up I set an in point at a part of an interview that I like and then an out point when the statement is over. I then want to cut out or copy that selection from the “in” to “out” points and paste it in another part of the timeline.

That “pasting attributes” will be VERY helpful!

FYI, Option = Alt.

There is no Select In->Out in the timeline, but you can lift/extract In->Out.

You can set in out markers around selected clip with key. Or set markers around the clip under the playhead with “shift+” combo. The function of removing the media between in and out markers that puts the clip into the paste option is called “Lift” with “:” key. It leaves a gap where the in out markers were set and the lifted clip is in the clipboard to paste.

“Extract” with the “;” key is based on the same process but it closes the gap left behind. That clip is still ready to paste.

There is Mark Clip which effectively marks the clip and allows you to use its duration in the edit process (like replacing it with another clip).
I have keyboard mapped that to the X key just like in FCP. Keyboard mapping makes the transition from FCP much easier.

Excellent tips!
Thanks so much for taking the time. After doing a couple hours of editing in the new Final Cut X I think it is going to be well worth the time to brush up on Premier Pro and use that. I am looking forward to watching LOTS and LOTS of creativecow.net over the next few weeks.

I have a clip in the Sequence. I set my IN an OUT points in the middle of this clip. I want to cut at both the in and out points simultaneously (preferably with a shortcut), so I can then ramp speed on this new clip. Does this exist in Premiere Pro CC 2016?

Where/what is the function to cut at both in and out?

Right now I’m cutting at IN point then moving over to OUT and cutting again. As always, just trying to save a few clicks 😉
