  • Making Notes on a Sequence

    Posted by Alan Balch on August 23, 2013 at 8:23 pm

    Hello All!
    I’ve got a sequence that I created in PremierePro 6. I showed it to my producer and she has some changes she wants to make.
    I scribbled down the notes on a piece of paper because nothing else was available at the time. Here is my question.
    Is there a way in Premiere Pro to do this? I’d love to be able to open my sequence and see the notes that I made and corrections that need to be made to it.
    Any thoughts?

    Thanks!

    MARKERS. You can ADD A MARKER to the timeline, from the MARKER menu. Problem is, they don’t move when you make changes, like cutting or adding material. FCP had this issue, and it was semi-addressed.

    [Shane Ross] “MARKERS. You can ADD A MARKER to the timeline, from the MARKER menu. Problem is, they don’t move when you make changes, like cutting or adding material. FCP had this issue, and it was semi-addressed.”

    Two workarounds:

    1) Add markers, then work through them backwards, starting at the end, so that rippling edits don’t mess up marker timing.

    2) Create a new video track and use titles instead of markers. Unlike markers, since these are regular timeline objects, they can ripple. You can also use a title to draw on the frame if you need to. Just don’t forget to clear them out when you’re done!
