Editing the Content of One Sequence into Another Without Nesting It
(p. 801)
You can edit from one sequence to another, either by nesting one sequence into another,
or by actually editing the clips from one sequence to another.
Methods for Editing Clips from One Sequence to Another
Often when you’re editing, you’ll be working with more than one sequence. For example,
you may create one sequence for each scene in a movie, or use different sequences for
various versions of your project. At some point, you may need to copy clips from one
sequence to another. Copying information between sequences is fairly easy and can be
done several ways. You can also edit entire sequences into other sequences, commonly
called nesting.
There are a few different ways to add content from one sequence to another:
• Copying and pasting clips from one sequence into another
• Using three-point editing to edit clips from a sequence open in the Viewer to a
destination sequence in the Canvas or Timeline
Important:
Editing clips between sequences with different dimensions, frame rates, and
codecs will apply motion parameters, such as distortion and aspect ratio adjustments, to
the resulting clips in the destination sequence. To remove these parameters, see
Effect and Motion Parameters.”
