Example apparatus and methods use a video game controller to edit videos down to clips. A game controller may include a variety of elements (e.g., thumb-sticks, buttons) configured to provide inputs. Inputs may be received simultaneously from multiple controller elements. The inputs may be used to simultaneously update terminal points for a clip being selected from a video. The controller elements may be thumb-sticks. In one embodiment, the associations between which thumb-stick will be used to control a starting frame and which thumb-stick will be used to control an ending frame may be user-configurable. Similarly, the elements on the controller that are used to provide the two simultaneous inputs may be user-configurable. The video from which the clip is being clipped may have been generated by a video game played on a video game console as controlled by the game controller that will also edit the clip.
