    Sub clips

    Posted by John Simpson on January 20, 2011 at 4:09 pm

    Hello,

    I need help. I am breaking down a 20 animatic into scenes to be animated. There willl be about 300 scenes. I have done this in AVID by on the timeline selecting in and outs and making sub clips-then exporting all at once when done. I don’t see how to do this in FCP. Can I make sub clips of the timeline? If not any ideas? Doing this out of the timeline makes things easy because I can see where the scenes start and end.

    Thanks,
    JS

    This isn’t pretty, but it’ll work.

    Use the blade tool (or CMD-V) in your timeline to cut up the future subclips. Then drag them to the browser. Yes, I know, not ‘avid-intuitive’ but it’ll work.

    Best,
