Trim a clip with Set In and Set Out

In and out points without a re-export: the file stays whole, and everywhere the clip is shared plays only the range you chose.

The reel wants 20 seconds of a 3-minute film. Trim gives you the 20 seconds without a re-export, and without touching the file.

Set the range

1. Open the video on its asset page.
2. Scrub to your start point and click Set In.
3. Scrub to your end point and click Set Out.

The player now constrains to the trimmed range, and a time range badge (for example "0:05.00 to 1:23.00") shows the bounds you set.

The trim badge shows the active range; Clear Trim restores the full clip any time.

Where the trim applies

Everywhere the asset is shared. A reel plays the trimmed portion; a review link shows reviewers the trimmed portion. One trim, every surface.

Undo it

Click Clear Trim and the full video is back, because it never left. The trim is a lens on the file, not a cut into it.

If what you want is genuinely a different deliverable (a 30-second cutdown with its own life), that is a separate asset, not a trim, by the same rule that governs versions: revisions are versions, alternatives are separate assets.
