Just a summary on how I used subclips to resolve my problem:
- I imported all footage into a project (all 16 hours of it!)
- I dragged the unedited footage onto timeline
- I cut out the normal interview/present parts (ripple delete is a real timesaver here!). So I was left with a timeline full of little bits of cutaway scenes.
- I opened every scene (double clicking on the scene in the timeline). Righclicked on the monitor–> Create Subclip–> Rename —> Done
- I then deleted all the original assets (full length fooage) from the project and saved it.
- When I need the cutaway scenes in another project, I import the full ‘cutaway’ project into current project and I have all the subclips neatly at my disposal to use to enhance the flow of my main edit!
Thanks again to this wonderful forum! Without this forum, I would not have been able to resolve it! Thanks!

Happy New Year (2011!!)

Hi Jeff

Thanks for the comprehensive answer!

My problem is not the sync of the 2 cams but to use clips (cutaways) from cam 2 at ANY other time to ‘cover’ mistakes or to make a logical cutaway for the viewer where presenter refers to book or script and a member of the audience on another day/another shoot, looked at his/her notes.

I want a ‘bin’ full of all cutaways as indiv clips made during the entire duration of the footage and just drag one of these clips to the timeline to cut away to.

My solution I think I found in the tutorial on this wonderful same website here https://library.creativecow.net/devis_andrew/Subclips/1
using subclips. This seems to be exactly what I was looking for! I’ll try that!

Thanks for your input again Jeff! Apologies if my problem was not stated very clearly!

Best regards from South Africa!
