One way is to trim the clip directly in the movie timeline. iMovie has a few different ways to trim a clip. Use the skimmer to preview your clips frame-by-frame, and then set the exact starting and ending frames for your clip and trim the clip. When you select a clip in the timeline, iMovie displays a skimmer and a playhead for previewing and playing the video. iMovie lets you zero in on a frame-by-frame view of your video so that you can precisely set your starting and ending frames for each clip in the movie timeline. When you adjust the starting and ending frames of the movie clips in the timeline, you are trimming a clip. iMovie can also correct shaky or blurry video caused by the camera being moved too quickly when recording the video. You can quickly delete or rotate clips in the timeline and split a movie clip into two clips. iMovie has advanced editing tools that enable you to precisely control the duration and orientation of the clip and to correct problems with the recorded video.
