# Creating a Subclip in the Player

You can create subclips anywhere that you have access to the source clip (i.e. Thumbnail, Player, Triptych and Source-Sequence viewers).

NoteRemember you will need handles for trimming and effects that you apply later. It is recommended to cue the tape a couple of seconds before the desired footage starts.

To create a subclip in the player:

1. Click the Timeline tab.
2. Set the positioner to the in point.
3. Click the In button.

   The start of the sub-clip is marked.

4. Set the positioner to the end point.
5. Click the Out button.

   The end of the sub-clip is marked.

   The section of the clip that is between the In and Out marks is the sub-clip.

6. From the Clip menu, select Create Subclip.

   The subclip is created as a new clip in the Media library. It has the original name and append ("_Subclip_") with an incremented number, starting with ("001").
