The shot will be edited into the Timeline - but it will not push all of the
other shots in front of it further along in the Sequence. Instead, it will
write over a portion of the Sequence beginning where your Scrubber
Bar is positioned.
If it is not obvious that this has happened it may
be necessary to condense the overall spread of
the shots on the Timeline. To do this, look to the
bottom of the Timeline and find the slider bar with
two ribbed ends. Drag either of these ribbed ends and you will see that the
Timeline can be expanded or contracted. This does not affect the length of your
movie in any way. What it does is to affect the display of your Sequence.
