Automating Screening and Marking
The Script window provides controls for automating the process of screening and placing script marks for a single take or across multiple takes.
To use automated screening and marking:
| 1. | |
Select one or more takes.
|
| 2. | |
Click the Record button in the Script window toolbar.
|
The first selected take changes to green in the Script window, the
system automatically loads the clip into the Source pop-up monitor,
and the clip begins to play.
| 3. | |
As you hear a line of dialog (or see a particular clip) that you want to
mark, click the matching line in the Script window.
|
A script mark appears at that location in the take, and the clip
continues to play.
 | |
You can scroll through the Script window without affecting playback.
|
| 4. | |
Continue to mark additional sync points by using one of the following
methods:
|
| |
Click a line that already contains a mark in order to replace the
previous mark and update the sync point in the clip.
|
|
| |
Click a line in the script before or after the range of the existing
take line, and the mark will be added while the take line is
extended to include the new line.
|
|
| |
Use variable-speed play controls (J-K-L keys on the keyboard) to
shuttle, step, or pause during playback.
|
|
| |
Press the Tab or Shift+Tab keys on the keyboard to begin playback
of the next or the previous take.
|
As each take reaches its end, the system automatically loads and plays
the next take.
| 5. | |
Continue to place marks until all takes have been screened.
|
To stop the playback loop:
|
|
|
Press the space bar.
