To add clips to a sequence automatically
You can quickly assemble a rough cut or add clips to an existing sequence. The automated sequence can include the
default video and audio transitions.
1 Set In and Out points to define each clip’s starting and ending points.

the order that they are arranged in a bin. You can also add sequences or clips in nested bins.
You can arrange clips in a bin in storyboard fashion by setting the Project panel to icon view. (See “To change Project
panel views” on page 92.)
3 Select the clips in the Project panel. Either Ctrl-click them in the order you want or by drag a selection marquee
around them.
4 In the Project panel, click the Automate To Sequence button .
5 Set the following options in the Automate To Sequence dialog box, and then click OK:
Ordering Specifies the method used to determine the order of the clips when they are added to the sequence. If you
choose Sort Order, clips are added in the order they’re listed in the Project panel: from top to bottom in List view; or
from left to right, top to bottom in Icon view. If you choose Selection Order, clips are added according to the order
in which you selected them in the Project panel.
Placement Specifies how clips are placed in the sequence. If you choose Sequentially, clips are placed one after
another. If you choose At Unnumbered Markers, clips are placed at unnumbered sequence markers. Choosing At
Unnumbered Markers makes the Transitions options unavailable.
Method Specifies the type of edit to perform. Choose Insert Edit to add clips to the sequence starting at the
sequence’s current time using insert edits, which shift existing clips forward in time to accommodate the new
material. Choose Overlay Edit to use overlay edits, which allow the new material to replace clips already in the
sequence.
Note: The Automate To Sequence command disregards target tracks and always uses video1 and audio1.
Clip Overlap Specifies the duration of the transition and how much to adjust the clips’ In and Out points to
compensateforitwhenApplyDefaultAudioTransitionorApplyDefaultVideoTransitionisselected.Forexample,
a value of 30 frames trims the clips’ In and Out points 15 frames at each edit, where a 30-frame transition is added.
The default value of this option is 15 frames. A pop-up menu lets you set the units to frames or seconds.
Apply Default Audio Transition Creates an audio crossfade at each audio edit, using the default audio transition
(defined in the Effects panel). This option is available only when audio tracks are present in selected clips, and the
Placement option is set to Sequentially. It has no effect when the Clip Overlap option is set to zero.
