Receiving Editing Assignments
Assignments automatically appear in your GV STRATUS Assignment List when they are sent from
the producer or assigned from another editor.
Producers create those assignments as clip placeholders for use in an upcoming news broadcast.
You can edit clips in EDIUS XS or Storyboard Editor, and link them to the placeholders in the
Assignment List.
Additional features of Assignment List Manager
In addition to creating clips for assigned placeholders and sending them to the server for playback,
there are other features of the Assignment List Manager that you can use.
