  Share A Little Trick!!!

  Posted by Tclark on August 29, 2006 at 1:50 am

  I am not sure if some of you know this but I figured I would share just in case you did not.

  I was having big issues with nested sequences! The original sequence would become very unresponsive when I had to go back to edit it. It would take forever for a change to be made.

  So I tried turning off the little eyeballs to the video tracks in the nested sequence and WOW! It worked. I could edit in my original sequence with no problem. In the past I would have to delete my nest in order to make edits in the original. Now I do not have to do that any more.

  This was huge for me because I could keep all the added stuff I used in the nest!

  Happy day!

  I hope this helps!!

  TClark,

  Thanks for that post…I am certain it is useful information to many if not all of us.

  One clarification: Do you mean turn off the eyeball on the track that contains the nested sequence in the “master sequence”? The eyeballs stay on inside the timeline window where you are editing the sequence which is nested…correct?

  This is really good…

  While we are talking about nests…

  when creating multi layered fx in a nested sequence….

  do you find that you create one nested sequence and build all of your FX on it as a kind of sub master?

  Or do you find that you create nests for each indivisual FX stack you create…

  Thx…

  I do most of my effects in After Effects but I use nests in Premiere mainly for color correction. I just did a work out video wich lasted for 45 minutes and after I nested it to do my color correction the original sequence became so unresponsive I would have to delete my nest to do any edits. With this new trick I can leave my nest and continue editing my original.

  What you mean about unresponsive? Are you working in PPro 1.x? What operations take longer, when the Sequence is nested (like RippleEdit/Trim, Extract)?

  Thank you.
