How to extend a shot?

Evenin' all.

I shot some footage (camera was static, on a tripod) and have discovered that I didn't shoot a long enough cut and I'm just trying to work out how to extend the shot. If it wasn't for the fact that I wanted to have a slow zoom (to be added in Premiere) then I'd just duplicated the relevant frames on the timeline (there's nothing moving in the shot, it's basically an inanimate object so duplicating the frames wouldn't be an issue).

How would be best to extend the shot so that I can also add a slow zoom too?

Thank you,

    Extend your shot, nest the clips and add the zoom to the nest.

    If nothing moves, use the Rate Stretch tool to extend the clip out.

      Hi Richard,

      I'm assuming that this is similar to grouping a bunch of clips so that they, essentially, become one clip that can adopt an effect?

      Thank you for your reply.

      Yes, when you nest a new sequence is created containing all the clips, effects and keyframes can then be added to the whole lot. Grouping in Premiere is slightly different.
