decomposing a sequence/up-ressing n Avid

[marc martinez]

Hello,
I am a newbie to the world of working in hd/sd. I was inquiring as to the concept and purpose of “decomposing a sequence” and also the steps to decompose as well as the “upres” procedure in Avid.
Thanks!
Marc

Decomposing gives you a new sequence with offline media that has had all the clips trimmed to only include the media used in the edit + handles. If you’ve edited at low resolution you then recapture only the media you need at the online rez.

Life is linear. Edit life.
