These days it is super-easy to capture quick video clips that you want to post to social media or embed in a blog post. For quick and easy editing, I use the QuickTime Player app on the Mac.
Open the clip in QuickTime, then click Trim… in the Edit menu (or press Cmd T). Drag the yellow handles from the left and right to narrow down to the start and end frames respectively, then click the Trim button to finish the edit. The newly edited clip will open in a new window, and you will have to save that out to a new video file.
Pro Tip: If your video file is in a format that QuickTime doesn't recognize (like MKV), use Handbrake to convert it to H.264.
