Add keywords to clips
Applying keywords to your clips helps you quickly locate the clips you need to
compose your movie. Analysis keywords are also automatically added to clips that
have been analyzed for common video and audio issues.
When a keyword is applied to a clip or a section of a clip, a Keyword Collection
appears in the Event Library. A Keyword Collection contains pointers (aliases) to clips
tagged with a specic keyword. For example, if you apply the keyword “Toys” to all
clips containing toys, you can then select the “Toys” Keyword Collection in the Event
Library to view all clips containing toys in the Event Browser.
Keyword Collections
You can apply one or more keywords to any range within a clip, a whole clip, or groups
of clips in an Event, and you can apply keywords in two ways:
Add keywords using the Keyword Editor Â
Add keywords quickly using keyboard shortcuts Â
You can also remove a keyword or subset of keywords that you previously applied.
Apply keywords using the Keyword Editor
1 In the Event Browser, select a range or one or more clips to which you want to
add keywords.
2 To open the Keyword Editor, click the Keywords button in the toolbar.
3 At the top of the Keyword Editor, type the keyword or keyword phrase you want to
apply to the selection, and press Return.
Type the keyword or
keyword phrase that
you want to apply to
the selection, and
press Return.
