Is the a way to find a clip in a sequence
Posted by Baz Leffler on June 16, 2007 at 5:55 amIf I select a clip in a bin it there an easy way to find where it is in a sequence?
In Adobe Premiere you select the clip and go “find clip in sequence” but I am unable to determine the FCP equivelentBaz
What would I do without the ‘UNDO’ button!!!!

when you use “find in sequence” with Premiere it provides a pull down with all the occurances of the clip in any and all sequences; then you can click on any entry and it will open that sequence with the required clip selected.

FCP isn’t Premiere…so many of the commands and features will be different. Premiere isn’t FCP…and it will lack much of what FCP does.

Yeah I am aware of all that although they are very similar in many ways also. Its just me coming to grips with both a new editing app AND a different platform. But the APPLE+F did the trick. Just as a matter of interest I need it as I am doing an online HDV conform from a project edited as DV from the down converted HDV. Just need it to check that it was all doing things accurately.

This is indeed a handy tip!
