An excerpt is a selected portion from a longer work such as a film or book. So long as you bear in mind its correct meaning, you can use the word "excerpt" in much the same way that you use the word "sample."

The trailer shows an excerpt from the film "Avatar."

The author read an excerpt from his new novel. I used an excerpt of the speech in my term paper.
