I just got the LEGO Studios Moviemaker set and have been playing around with
it.  My question is, once I film a clip, how can I cut out parts that I don't
want in it?  For instance, I have some extra time at the beginning and end of
the clip...and is it possible to select a section in the middle and cut it
out?

Yes.

Remember now that this is a kiddie app and will not give high quality results.

(I dont remember the correct words for everything so I will do my best.)

Select the scene in the Movie Track.  Then move the blue tap in the scrub bar
to the area you want to cut.  So if you want to cut the first 2 seconds out you
would move it to the end of the first 2 seconds.  Then click on the button to
the right under the trashcan.  It is...clip scene or something like that.
Maybe it is split scene.  anyways....once you do this you select the piece you
do not want and trash it.

The problems I have had with this so far are hair pulling glitches. In my Ninja
Madness movie I filmed more than I needed and when I tried to cut it out the
first frame would still show when the movie played.  I tweaked with it for a
bit but ended up cutting out more than I wanted so the samurai pops onto the
screen with his horse instead of a steady walk on.  Such is life when using a
cheap program.

I hope this helps you out.
