Rippled changes with nested sequence(s)
Hello,
Using Premiere Pro CC 7.2.2 (33) on a long-form project for the first time. I’ve broken up the film into individual sequences for each scene and placed those nested sequences into a Master Assembly timeline. Is there a setting that will ripple whatever changes I make inside an individual nested sequence to the master? I see that when I trim something it gives me the grey diagonal bars in the master indicating that there is no media there, but will it not ripple automatically?
Hoping there’s a box I need to tick somewhere. Thanks!

Nesting is dangerous. Is there a reason you are nesting instead of just copy/pasting the sequence content? Why nest?

It’s a carry over from my workflow on that other NLE I guess. I like having an assembly timeline that allows me to look at my scene structure easily and make sweeping changes (shuffling scenes, etc.) during a rough cut stage. Much easier than looking at a thousand edits or whatever and hunting for scenes based off of rippled markers I guess for me.
Once structure feels good, then I can copy/paste sequence content.
At any rate, is there any way to ripple changes within a nest to that Master Assembly timeline? FCP7 wasn’t perfect but was pretty good about it, and I’m just curious if there’s a box I can tick somewhere.
Thanks!

Hi Shane,
Thanks for your interest in my situation. Do you know if this nest rippling is possible? All my google/cow/etc searches haven’t turned up anything.
Not the biggest deal in the world obviously, just learning the differences between PP and FCP. Thanks!

Maybe you should try…you’re never too old to learn something new.

Nesting, in my experience…and in the workflows I do…is bad bad bad. Dangerous. I did try it, and it was a mitigated disaster. I avoid it at all costs.

I actually find nesting a very good resource in my delivery.
I would never use it in editing.Then I can have a master sequence with clean video, subtitles and graphic in different languages, a whole variety of audio tracks.
And then I can have different nested sequences according to my delivery specs.
Changes does unfortunate happen, and then I only have to make the changes one place, and hopefully eliminate a human error from my part.Thanks
