Which editing action changes the boundary between two adjacent clips?

• A. Cut point between two clips
• B. Moves a clip while maintaining its duration
• C. Automatically align clips
• D. Organize editing notes

Answer: (A)

What this item tests is how you change the boundary between two adjacent clips on the timeline. That boundary is the cut point where one clip ends and the next begins. The action that changes this boundary is adjusting that cut point—dragging the edge between the two clips to shorten or extend one clip so the point where they meet moves. This directly alters how long each clip plays before the cut and where the transition occurs. If you move a clip while keeping its duration, you simply shift the entire clip along the timeline without changing where it ends relative to its neighbor. Automatically aligning clips or organizing editing notes don’t modify the meeting point of the clips in the timeline. So, changing the cut point between two clips is the action that changes the boundary.
