  • Can you have too many sequences?

    Posted by Olly Lawer on November 4, 2011 at 4:08 pm

    Hi,

    I’m currently editing a massive project which will be split into several different episodes.

    I have already created 20 or so sequences. Am I going to run into trouble if I create too many?

    Kind regards,

    Olly Lawer

    [Olly Lawer] “I have already created 20 or so sequences. Am I going to run into trouble if I create too many?”

    The number of sequences is seldom a problem. It’s the number of open sequences that often bites. So, proceed without fear… And, keep in mind that you can always open a brand new project at any time, and you can just copy and paste only the sequence(s) you actually need into that project, and it will run like a champ.
