what’s the easiest way to select everything to the right of your cursor?
Say i want to make a gap in my sequence at 2:00 so i can have some space to work in, what is the easist way to select all clips to the right of my cursor on the timeline and move them over so i have that room? Insert filler? Just zoom all the way out and select all with a cursor and move them? Help? Thanks.

Insert filler.

You need to stop thinking Media 100. On Avid, as Charlie said, select a duration of filler and insert it where you want. That moves everything downstream. Be sure you have all your track locks on so that you do not throw sync by only inserting filler on some tracks and not on others.

Hey, while you guys were having breakast by the pool in Vegas at NAB, I was freezing in a fur hat near the Arctic Circle. I was in Russia for 2 months working as a Christian “Media Missionary” or as I like to call myself, a “Media Mercenary”. I had a little time in Finland in the middle of the trip. I may have posted then; I don’t remember. Prior to that trip I have been recovering from treatments for my second occurance of prostate cancer in 4 years. Now I am home and I am working as a technical editor on an video editing tech book.
I might sound like an old guy with my cancer, but I am under 50 and had it since my 30s. It has made me re-think what is important and re-invent myself. No more long grind in the edit room. That was a large contributor to my health woes. I am trying to figure out how to capitalize on my head knowledge and get more involved in education between trips to Russia and other places where I can make diference.
I am passionate about editing and still do it if the situation is to my liking – film with redeeming social value, reasonable people, reasonable hours, reasonable rates. But no more nights of the long edit for this guy. It’s only TV and no one dies if we don’t keep pushing past normal working hours.
I looked past the mountain of cancer and decided what I was doing with the time I had left. I decided to spend a big part of my time using my skills in TV production, working to spread the Love of God in parts of the world where people do not usually have the opportunity to hear. I work with people native to those areas, offer them training and work beside them. As soon as I was recovered from treatment, I went. And it was only a few days before I left in March that I found out that my mountain had been cast into the sea and I was cancer free.

Well, this sounds good, I hope everything continues to go well and you stay free of further developments. akes my creative burnout that kept me off work for a while seem very trivial. I fully understand the no more long hours in the edit bay concept.
Glad to see your posts again. Keep plugging. And happy to have you back.
Charlie
