1. Which key selects the Razor tool?

Answer: C. C is the Razor tool. R is Rate Stretch and B is Ripple Edit.

2. You trim the end of a clip and want the following clips to move up so no gap is left. Which tool do you use?

Answer: Ripple Edit (B). Ripple Edit trims a clip and shifts everything after it, so no gap is left.

3. Which tool changes the cut point between two clips without changing the total length of the sequence?

Answer: Rolling Edit (N). Rolling Edit moves the edit point: one clip gets longer by exactly as much as the other gets shorter.

4. What does Ctrl+R (Cmd+R on Mac) open?

Answer: Clip Speed/Duration. Ctrl+R opens Speed/Duration, where you set slow motion, fast motion or reverse.

5. Which keys set the In and Out points?

Answer: I and O. I marks In and O marks Out, in both the Source Monitor and the timeline.

6. Where do you animate a clip's Scale and Position with keyframes?

Answer: Effect Controls. Effect Controls holds the Motion properties (Position, Scale, Rotation, Anchor Point) and their keyframes.

7. You slow 25 fps footage down to 40% speed and it looks jerky. Which Time Interpolation setting creates new in-between frames?

Answer: Optical Flow. Optical Flow analyses motion and builds new frames. Frame Sampling repeats frames and Frame Blending mixes them.

8. Which tool shifts the content inside a clip without moving the clip on the timeline?

Answer: Slip (Y). Slip changes which part of the source is used while the clip keeps its place and length. Slide moves the clip itself.

9. Which tool stretches a clip to a new length by changing its speed?

Answer: Rate Stretch (R). Rate Stretch speeds up or slows down a clip to fit the length you drag it to — useful to fit footage to music.

10. Which keyframe interpolation gives a smooth start and stop to a movement?

Answer: Ease In / Ease Out. Ease In and Ease Out slow the motion near the keyframes, so it starts and stops smoothly. Linear moves at a constant speed.
