To insert my video clips into my trailer, I uploaded all of the videos I had filmed onto 'my media' on iMovie. I could then chose a clip I wanted, crop it to the part of that clip I want and then select the '+' on the clip which would then add the selected clip to the end of my timeline. I also, for some clips, selected the part of the video wanted and then dragged that video onto my timeline in the exact place I wanted it to be.
After putting the media onto my timeline, I then could trim or extend the clips. For example, on this clip, after cropping and inserting it onto my timeline I decided I wanted more of the clip than I had cropped and therefore used this tool to extend the clip on the trailer.
The timeline allows you to add multiple videos and audio on top of each other enabling them to be played at the same time. For example, in this part of my trailer, this allowed me to have my video playing as well as music and another audio clip of a voice over at the same time.
Regarding the audio clips, the line throughout the middle of each clip relates to the percentage of how loud the sound is. This allowed me to change how loud each clip is in relation to each other. For example, at this point in my trailer I had the percentage of sound for the voice over quite high by dragging the line upwards. The other audio clip was a song in which I dragged the line down to ensure the clip was quiet. This allowed for the voice over to be heard over the music.
