## Overview

Use the editor to:

* Remove or trim unwanted parts from clips
* Correct transcript words
* Highlight important words
* Add emojis
* Add highlights
* Add voiceover
* Change orientation
* Add assets, b-rolls, text, and branding
* Adjust caption timing
* Reorder timeline rows and add more layers

## How To Open A Clip In The Editor

1. Generate your clips in Reap.
2. Click the **Edit** button below the clip you want to refine.
3. Make changes in the editor, preview the result, then export when you're ready.

Common transcript actions include:

* `Set as start`
