Now comes the fun part -- editing the captured video. Click the Edit tab near the top of the Studio 9.0 window to display again the thumbnail images, along with a multiframe storyboard in the lower half of the window. Drag the scene thumbnails into the storyboard in the sequence you want. You can ignore unwanted scenes such as the countdown scene Pinnacle adds as the first thumbnail. Once you have your scenes on the storyboard, play the compilation to see how it looks.

For the moment, each scene is followed immediately by the next one on the storyboard, but you can insert transitions between them via the Show Transitions button. Don't get carried away with too many special effects, though. Anything beyond a simple wipe can be a visual distraction and divert your audience's attention from the film itself.

You can drag captured scenes to the storyboard in any sequence. The
small squares between frames 2 and 3, and 5 and 6, are transitions.

You can also insert a still image between scenes on the storyboard. If you're editing a wedding video, for instance, you could place childhood photos of the wedding couple to serve as transitions between scenes. Click the 'Show photos and frame grabs' button, select an image and drag it into the storyboard, placing it between any two scenes.
