  subclipping from timeline…

  Posted by Roc Barbanica on February 9, 2007 at 6:56 am

  If I mark IN and OUT points on the timeline for video and its audio, then do a
  MAKE SUBCLIP- it appears in the bin as a SEQUENCE, not a subclip.

  Here’s why I’m trying to do that…
  I have a 3 cam shoot and one idiot cam op stopped recording and then started again.
  I sync’d the beginning cut the footage at the stop/start frame for vid and audio, moved it down and resync’d the tail to the other tracks.

  I want to group the tracks/clips but I have this gap. I wanted to make a subclip of the entire track with the void in the middle so it is the same length as the others as a whole.

  I know I can split the timeline and edit the two halves independently but that … sucks.

  Any pros got some help for me?

  what’s the difference for u if you edit with a subsequnce or a subclip?
  if you already did all the preparing work for the clips, so why not take them as yoru new ‘sources’?

  Because you cannot GROUP subsequences for multicam editing…

  Can you do a match-frame and then subclip from the source monitor?
