Setting the Poster Frame
The poster frame is the picture that represents a clip in icon view in the Browser. When
you look at clips in the Browser in large icon view or when you show the Thumbnail
column in list view, the icon or thumbnail picture you see reflects either the In point for
that clip (or the first frame of the clip if no In point has been set), or the poster frame you
set for the clip in the Browser.
Poster frames are useful if you want to identify a clip visually in the Browser using a specific
image, and can be especially useful if you’re working with a lot of clips or subclips with
similar imagery. Any frame of a clip can be its poster frame.
To set the poster frame of a clip in the Viewer
1 Double-click a clip in the Browser to open it in the Viewer.
