  • Best way to “un-nest” a sequence?

    Posted by Beau Brotherton on November 6, 2007 at 4:42 pm

    Hello to all,

    I nested a sequence a few weeks ago in this current project. We are now going back to it and the director wants to redo it. Basically add more video and match it up with the audio.

    It is quite difficult to add the video in the nested sequence and sync with the audio. Is there a way to un-nest a sequence, or is that just copy and pasting the footage pack into the original.

    Thanks for you help,

    If you select the sequence in the browser, you can drag it into the timeline and hold the command key to insert the sequence as original clips instead of a nested sequence.

    That might help, but it’s still kind of like copy and paste.

    I don’t know of a way to just unnest a sequence with a key stoke.

    Just double click on it and it opens the sequence that you nested.
