Reading Clip Markers
Here’s a great way to read comments in Clip markers.
Thanks to Stephen Kanter for the following tip:
Here’s the scenario: An editor puts markers on her clips with detailed notes. She then edits the clips and markers into a sequence. What’s the best way to read the comments in the Clip markers?
Here’s one way to do it:
- Select the entire sequence by pressing Command+A.
- Set Playhead Sync to Open.
- Use the jump to the next/previous marker shortcuts (Shift+M/Option+M) to jump from marker to marker. The source clips will automatically open in the Viewer (i.e., Match Frame is always “on” in Open Sync mode), and you can read the overlays in the Viewer as you step through the sequence markers.
Very cool!
