- 2. Now, you have added an effect on the first and you want to get the same effect on the rest of clips but going one by one is a time-consuming exercise. You can do it very easily by right-clicking the first clip and select Copy Effect.
- 3. Drag the cursor over the rest of clicks and select them in a go.
- 4. After selecting all the clips that you want to put the effects on, right-click on the clips and select Paste Effect.
- So now all your clips would have the same effect as the first clip that you selected.
