    Posted by Adrian Salinas on January 24, 2010 at 9:59 am

    I want to make multiple timelines out of multiple clips each on its own timeline,
    I would like to know If there is a way to do this without having to do it manually one at a time.

    I would greatly appreciate any help.

    Thanks

    You can duplicate sequences in the Browser by typing cmd+d if that’s what you’re asking.

    I didn’t quite understand what you wanted to do. Why are you needing to do this?

    I am making stock clips out of lots of different footage shoot over time, I need to trim and color correct all of it and some times edit stuff out, cut the sound, etc.
    I want to do this by having 1 time line per clip so at the end i can batch export.
    the way im doing it now is making each timeline one by one, this is very time consuming
    i would like to know it i can batch or automate this action so all the clips inside a folder go each to its own separate timeline,
    thanks for the help i appreciate it

    You have sort of a unique problem all right… have to have clips in a sequence to send them to Color alright…

    Only thing I can think of to improve a one at a time method is to put many in a single sequence, then pull the edited and corrected clips from that sequence to a browser after it’s sent back from Color maybe?

    Ya know? I’d forgotten about this software! It may well be the ticket you’re looking for indeed! It does as advertised, at least used to…
