Choose Trim from the Edit menu in Quicktime Player 10. A heads-up display appears at the bottom of the video. A yellow box outlines the whole video in a section of thumbnails in the heads-up display. To trim away the beginning of the video drag the left end of the yellow selection box towards the right. Place it where you want your video to begin. To trim away the end of the video drag the right end of the yellow selection box towards the leftt. Place it where you want your video to end.
Click the yellow Trim button in the heads-up display. Anything that is not selected is trimmed away. Now you can save the video, perhaps share it on YouTube, or just keep it for personal viewing. My very brief video of my dogs running was filmed in Wellington’s Town Belt.
This was only a few metres away from where Peter Jackson filmed one scene in Lord of the Rings. It was the scene where Frodo and friends hid from the horsemen. Of course, his video cost millions and looks a whole lot better than mine.
