Example: Duplicating a Sequence and Its Corresponding Media
Files
In this example, a sequence is copied to a new project, along with its corresponding
media files. The new sequence clips refer to the new media files, while the original
sequence still refers to the original media files.
For example, you may have captured an hour’s worth of media from tape, but used only
45 minutes of it in the sequence. You can duplicate the sequence and create copies of
the media files referenced by the sequence, but without the unused 15 minutes of footage.
