Creating Subclips
Subclipping divides portions of a master clip into shorter clips, called sub-
clips. The original master clip remains intact. In addition, a subclip edited
into a sequence can be expanded to include more material from the master
clip. Subclipping is a great tool for organizing your footage into manage-
able units and for creating storyboards.
To create a subclip:
1. Load the clip into the Source monitor.
2. Play the clip.
3. Mark an IN where you would like the subclip to begin and an OUT
where you would like it to end.
To confi rm t he ma rks, you can click the P lay I N to OUT button (or
press 6).
4. Create the subclip by doing one of the following:
 Drag the Create Subclip icon to the left of the clip name above
the Source monitor, and drop it in the destination bin. (The mouse
pointer becomes a hand icon over the subclip’s icon.)
 Drag from within the image displayed in the Source monitor to the bin.
5. The subclip is placed in the bin and is highlighted. It’s called clip name.
Sub.n, where n is the number of subclips you have created from that
clip. Notice that the subclip icon is a small version of the clip’s icon.

6. Name the subclip.
When creating subclip names, it’s just as important to follow a good
naming convention as when creating clip names. Doing so will help
you keep track of your footage and make the subclip easy to locate
when needed.
