You can slip the frames used in one shot without adjusting the shot's position in the timeline. You may need to slip your shot to synchronize action in the picture to the audio or because unwanted frames are appearing at either the head or tail.

To slip one or more shots:

1. Select the shot you want to slip in the Storyboard. The selected shot's border turns red. To select multiple shots on the Storyboard, right-click each shot. The borders turn aqua.
   NoteYou must have available handles to slip a shot.
2. Click Editing in the main menu, and then click Edit.

   The Edit menu appears.
