  • How to select clips on timeline by keyword?

    Posted by Peter Gudmunson on August 25, 2015 at 4:15 pm

    I am working on a documentary with 10+ interviews that were all recorded in different circumstances, each needing independent video and audio adjustments.

    Instead of using 10+ tracks and eating up all of my screen real estate, I want to potentially edit them all on the same track. I was hoping that there is a feature in PPro CC2015 similar to the role editor in FCPX where I can select all used clips on the timeline via keyword. I know that I can select all of a certain label color, but I have more interviews than labels available.

    How can I put interviews on the same track but be able to easily select all clips from just one interview later?

    Thanks!

    you could assign related clips to the same “tape name” in the project panel prior to dropping in the sequence…

    then you can find in the timeline by tape name

    that help?

    This was helpful, thanks! I knew it would be something simple that I was missing.
