Appending clips to the timeline

Click the fast review button to play quickly through all the clips in the source tape string
of clips.

The fast review button plays through the clips at faster speeds for longer clips. When you
reach one of the shorter clips, fast review will automatically slow down playback a bit so
you don’t miss shorter clips. This gives you a quick and easy way to review new material
which is important if you’re editing unfamiliar clips that someone else has shot. Once you
review the content, you should have a good idea of a few shots you might like to use as
you start to assemble your edit in the timeline.

Appending clips to the timeline

Once you have reviewed your content, you can start assembling the rest of the clips into
your timeline. Instead of dragging, you can easily append clips one after another to the end
of your timeline, building your story as you go. Since we have a good opening, let’s look for
a good ending to our promo.

While in the source tape, drag the play head to the last clip where the women pick up
the finished plate and prepare to eat from it.
