if you logged and captured as smaller clips, you can
Select the sequnce in hte browser,
Apple F to open hte search window
Search for: Unused Media in selected sequnce
when it gert presented in hte search results window,
select it all,
SHIFT D (for delete) to open hte make offline wiindow,
move to trash.
check that your sequnce hasnt been afrected (it shouldnt be, but best to be sure)
then empty the trash.

if you did whole-roll captures, then Media Manager would be the best bet.
DONT use “Use Existing” mode
Use COPY mode, check the results, then manualy delete the original files using the Make Offline window
Media Manger isnt perfect, and Use Exising is a one way street: if somewthing goes wrong, you’re toast.
