clips?
Select the clip in the Timeline. Click the Inspector button in the toolbar, or press Command-4. Click the Video tab, if necessary. To disable an effect, deselect the blue checkbox next to the effects you don’t want to view.
How do you modify the priority of effects applied to project clips?
With the clip selected in the Timeline, in the Video Inspector, drag the effect title bar above or below another effect.
