Column Headers in the Shots Browser

When the Shots browser is in list view, up to nine columns of information are visible.

Shots Browser Column Headers: These columns appear when the Shots browser is in

list view.

Number: Lists a shot's position in the edit. The first shot is 1, the second is 2, and so

on.

Shot Name: The name of that shot, based on its filename.

Colorist: Lists the name that occupied the Colorist field in the Project Settings when

that shot was last corrected. This column is useful for keeping track of who worked
on which shots when multiple colorists are assigned to a project.

Status: Shows that shot's rendered status. You can right-click on this column for any

selected shot and choose a new state from the shortcut menu. For more information
on the five possible render states, see

Possible Render States in the Status Column

.

Reconform: Lists whether that shot has been affected by a Reconform operation. For

example, you can sort by this column to quickly identify and navigate to new shots
that aren't yet graded because they were added to the Timeline as a result of a
Reconform operation. For more information on reconforming a project, see

Reconforming Projects

. For more information on the four possible Reconform flags,

see

Possible Flags in the Reconform Column

.

Time Spent: This column appears only when the Show Time button below the Shots

browser is turned on. It shows how much time has been spent grading that particular
shot. Color keeps track of how long you spend working on each shot in each program,
in order to let you track how fast you've been working.

Notes: The Notes column provides an interface for storing and recalling text notes

about specific shots. Shots with notes appear with a checkmark in this column.

Match: The Match column only appears when a project has been created by importing

an EDL into Color. This column displays the percentage of confidence that each shot
in the Timeline has been correctly linked to its corresponding DPX, Cineon, or
QuickTime source media. The confidence value is based on the methods used to do
the linking. For more information, see

Explanation of Percentages in the Match

Column

.

Possible Render States in the Status Column

Each shot has one of five possible render states that appear in the Status column of the
Shots browser:

Queued: The shot has been added to the Render Queue.

Rendering: The shot is currently being rendered.

Rendered: The shot has been successfully rendered.
