    I’m starting in on my first large project (approx 60 min) with Vegas 8 and was wondering how more experienced users organized their work flow. With my old system, in order to keep my time line under control, I’d create several 10 – 15 minute “containers” or sequences and then combine them all onto a final time line and render from there. Before I try to figure this out with Vegas 8, I was hoping some folks would have tried and true tips for me on how to do this. Many thanks in advance.

    I’ve never done large projects like that but I’ve read in several forums to use the “Nesting” feature. I’m sure the help file explains it better but it’s for doing just that. Danny

    Exactly. You can simply continue doing things the same way you always have. Make several smaller projects – and then combine them into a “final” project when done. You can actually drag a VEG file to the timeline and it will work just like any other “clip”. So just drag all the different VEG files into the FINAL project.

    However, what u seem to be saying is that each Vegas project can only contain one timeline (sequence)?
    yes?
