Introducing Tools and Workflow
5. At the end of the section you chose, mark an OUT point (press O).
6. Press the 6 key (the Play IN to OUT shortcut) to review the marked
clip. If you want to change your IN and OUT points, simply reenter
them at the desired location.
7. Go through the Montage Selects bin clip by clip, and repeat steps 3
to 6 for each clip you choose. Make sure to select the most interesting
portions of the clips and mark them accordingly.
Making Your First Edit
After you’ve marked your clips, you can begin editing.
To get started editing:
1. Before making your first edit, you should create a Sequences bin
to contain your sequence. Many editors name the bin _Sequences.
Because Avid sorts its bins alphabetically, the underscore will send the
bin to the top of the Project window, making it easy to find whenever
you need to access your working sequence.
NOTE The process of
marking clips and editing
them to make a sequence
is an organic process. You
don’t need to first mark all
your clips and then edit
them into the Timeline.
Rather, it’s a back-
and-forth process that
unfolds as you build the
sequence. However, for
teaching purposes, we’ve
ordered the process in a
more systematic way.
