When to use

Use this when you want to:

  • Make an asset appear longer or shorter

  • Match visuals to narration timing

  • Adjust pacing between scenes

  • Fix assets that feel too fast or too slow


Steps

  1. Select the asset in the timeline that you want to adjust.

  2. Drag the edge of the asset left or right to shorten or extend its duration.

The asset will now play for the updated length.
