Thanks for this.
I am beginning to understand the value of not dumping clips around across multiple tracks for the sake of it and thinking about the Primary Storyline as what is is; where the main stuff goes. Hard habit to break after so many years though. To start with I found it rather inflexible but perhaps i does encourage more focussed disciplined thinking. I’m still not sure. But I opened FCP7 the other day and it looked a little old fashioned.
I am beginning to understand the need for secondary storylines as a result of this reply.
Auditions are great.
Compound clips I don’t really get but then I never really used nesting before.
All the best
James
