Part VI

Rough Editing

Goes into your sequence like this:

To create a storyboard in the Browser:

1

Control-click in the Browser, then choose View as Large Icons from the shortcut menu.

2

Drag the clips into the order in which you want them to appear, keeping the rows of
clips relatively straight, so that Final Cut Express HD can properly determine their order.

Tip: To ensure clips are placed in the Timeline in the proper order, place each
subsequent clip several pixels lower and to the right of the previous clip.

Note: If you don’t want to use the entire duration of each clip, you can set In and Out
points for each clip to specify the part you want to use (see “

Setting Clip In and Out

Points in the Viewer

” on page 286).
