When I do my videos, I usually do all of the filming all in one shot, and then split apart the clips, and delete the chunks that I don't want. The only problem is that when you do this, you have a lot of empty space in between clips.

Is there a way to move all of the clips together, and to the front of the timeline, without using the clip trimmer?

I hate just going back and manually moving them to the front. It's time consuming, and I often end up screwing stuff up.
