Lesson 3
Organizing a New Project
Importing Folders
Instead of selecting each of the clips you want to import and adding them all to the
master bin, you can import an entire folder and automatically create a custom bin.
1 In the upper area of the library, click the back arrow to view the contents of the
Lesson 03 folder.
2 Right-click the audio folder, and choose “Add folders and subfolders to media pool
(create bins)”.
Choosing this menu item creates a bin with the folder’s name and adds it to the master bin.
All of the clips contained in the folder are imported as part of the new bin.
Reviewing and scrubbing clips
You might want to review and check your clips after you’ve imported them, especially if
you’re editing a project that was shot by someone else and you’re as-yet unfamiliar with
the footage.
1 In the media pool sidebar, select the master bin.
2 In the bin, hover the mouse pointer over any video clip.
When your mouse pointer is located over any clip in a bin, a live preview of the clip is
displayed in the viewer. You can move your mouse back and forth over the thumbnail
to quickly scrub through it.
