Creating Subclips
A subclip is a clip created by referencing a portion of media from another clip or
program. For example, if you recorded a two hour clip, you could create several short
subclips to use as previews or advertisements. Each subclip refers to a small portion
of the original clip and is listed along with all other clips in the Clips pane. When
working with subclips, the original clip is sometimes called the source clip. After
creating subclips, you can delete the source clip.
See “Deleting an asset” on page 239
Subclips created from a clip that is currently recording can only have a mark-out equal
to the last frame that has been recorded when the subclip is created. You cannot create
a subclip longer than has been recorded under the assumption that the record will “fill
it in”.
You can load subclips in the Control view and edit the mark-in/mark-out points the
same as a clip, provided the unreferenced source media has not been erased. If the
source media has been erased, the subclip retains 1 second of media on each side of
the mark-in and mark-out points.
See “Editing a clip: Moving mark-in/mark-out” on
