    Hi there

    Is there a way in PP to turn a succession of trimmed clips that are all sitting in a long row on the same video track on a timeline, into their own individual source clips (without reference to the original media they were trimmed from)?

    i.e create new clips from your trimming decisions, not just reference clips from the source?

    I am trying to avoid all reference to the culled “unwanted” material resurfacing again by accident during the edit.

    Is this possible?

    Nest each individual clip and give it a new name. They’ll look like sequences in your Project bin, but they’ll act just like clips.

    Thanks Paul
    I have 689 clips though. Can this be done in one automated way?

    Have you set in and out points for each clip?
    The normal way would be to create sub clips. These become “trimmed” clips with the in to out duration, and can be given a new name.
    You cannot create sub clips from multiple clips, at the same time – but you could setup a keyboard shortcut to speed up the process…
