Creating an Instant Rough Cut
As an alternative to creating a new sequence by editing clips one at a time, you can quickly create a rough cut by selecting and loading multiple clips directly from the bin in Frame view and by dragging them into the Timeline.
To create a rough cut from a bin:
1. | |
Click the Frame tab to enter Frame view.
|
2. | |
In the bin, sort the clips in the order in which you want them to appear
in the sequence.
|
3. | |
Select the tracks for the edit.

If no sequences are loaded in the Composer monitor, the Timeline has no
features.
|
4. | |
Do one of the following:
|
| |
Ctrl+click (Windows) or Shift+click (Macintosh) the clips.
|
| |
Lasso the clips by dragging left to right and down to select more
than one clip. See Lassoing Objects.
|
| |
Select Edit > Select All if there are no other clips in the bin.
|
5. | |
Drag the highlighted clips to the Timeline to splice the clips into place.
|
The clips are spliced together to form a new sequence based on the
order in which they were listed in the bin.
