Entering Logging Information

After you’ve mounted a volume and selected a clip in the Browse area, you can enter
logging information for the selected clip.

Preview area

Logging area

Transfer Queue area

The Logging area of the Log and Transfer window provides logging fields for:

• Reel

• Clip Name

• Scene

• Shot/Take

• Angle

• Log Note

When you select a clip in the Browse area, Final Cut Pro automatically enters the reel
name (from the Volume column) and clip name (from the Name column) in the logging
fields. You can change these logging items if you want. Remember, however, that keeping
reel names and volume names the same may be critical to locating source media later.
So it’s recommended that you use the name as it appears in the Volume column as the
reel name of your source media.
