Now, let's look at what HitFilm is really known for: compositing and effects. It works the same way, with a few little idiosyncrasies. Again, in terms of placing clips and audio in the timeline, there's really nothing much to it beyond what I've just shown you here. It's very non-traditional and drove me crazy, but once I understood, at least I knew how to work around it.
That is something that's just different in this NLE. Normally, if I put an in and out point like that in the lighter gray shaded area shown in Figure 5, and then I had no in and out points here, or even if I did, it would ask me, "What do you want to do? Do you want to use these in and out points on the Viewer or the Trimmer, or do you want to use the in and out points on your timeline, or do you want to fit to fill, or stretch it, or whatever the case is?" Instead, wherever you put your in and out points and then place your playhead on the timeline, it puts the clip where your playhead starts, so if I insert here or overlay here, it puts it right where the playhead is and ignores the in and out points.įXhome explained to me that the in and out points on the timeline are only used to determine your export, so at this point, I would use this button for exporting the in and out area, and it would only export from in to out on the timeline, leaving everything else unrendered in the final file. The other thing that drove me crazy was the fact that in and out points on your timeline are not honored like they normally are in NLEs. You have to drag it onto the track that you want.
The other thing you'll notice is, it just overwrote everything on my timeline there, which is what I wanted it to do, because I used the Overlay command, because even if I use Insert, it still puts it on track 1, and it moves everything down, so how do you put it on track 2? Well, you can't with the keyboard shortcuts. Choosing the Trimmer to drop a clip in the timeline If I want to drop in a clip, I have to choose the Trimmer viewer and illuminate it in blue here by clicking on it ( Figure 5, below) and then hit the Insert button.įigure 5. The other thing that threw me off was the fact that keyboard shortcuts do not work globally, at least as far as dropping clips onto your timeline is concerned, so when I set my playhead to where I want a clip to go in, and then I hit N, nothing happened. They are right next to each other on the keyboard, so at least you don't have to jump around looking for them, but that was something that threw me off at first. For inserting and overlaying a clip, you're probably used to period and comma, but in HitFilm, it's N and B. Everything works fairly standard as far as how to put clips in, but there are a few issues that I had to contend with as a Premiere Pro editor.
