Final Cut Pro – Selecting the Range of a Clip
Here’s a fast way to select only a portion of a clip.

Range Selection Tool
Wouldn’t it be great to apply a filter to only a portion of a clip – without having the cut the clip into a million pieces first?
Well, we can — using the Range Selection tool (keyboard shortcut GGG).
Using this tool, drag across the middle of a clip. Where ever you drag will be selected.
Then, apply an effect. The effect will only apply to the selected portion of the clip.
You can use this technique to apply effects, delete portions of a clip, or select something to copy and paste elsewhere.
Very cool.
