Breaking Clips
The Breaking Clips method applies to all the clip-type data in the timeline main tracks (main tracks under Sound FX are excluded). With this feature you may extract partial clips from a very long clip and delete the redundant clips.
Breaking Clips
-
Select the character. In this example, the character already moves along a path without any body motion.
-
Use the Body Puppet Editor
to record and produce a motion clip.
- If you do not want the last half-motion, then press F3 to launch the Timeline.
-
Click the character's Motion main track button.
You will see the clip in the track.
-
Drag the play head to the time frame where you need to break the clip up into new half clips.
- Click the Break button on the Timeline toolbar.
-
The clip will be divided into two halves.
-
Select the second one and delete it.
-
Play back the project and the character's motion will stop at the end of the trimmed clip.
