Chapter 5 Organizing with Bins

Film Scene Workflow
During the organizing phase, common practice on film productions is to
organize the digitized clips according to scene. This helps to simplify the
work environment for the editor, and keeps crowded bins to a minimum.
Use the various procedures described in this chapter to organize scene bins
according to the following basic workflow:
1. Create one bin for each scene using the procedures described in
“Creating a New Bin” on page 48.
2. Gather clips according to scene using one of the following optional
procedures:
t Copy clips for each scene from the digitize bins into the
appropriate scene bin, using procedures described in “Copying
Clips” on page 115.
t Duplicate the clips and then move the duplicates into the
appropriate scene bin, using procedures described in “Duplicating
Clips” on page 114.
3. Proceed to sort, sift, and organize the clips within each scene bin,
according to the editor’s preferences.
It is good practice to copy or duplicate clips as you reorganize them in
bins. As a result, the original source clips will remain in the appropriate
dailies bin if you ever need to redigitize according to source tape.
Setting the Bin Display
By default, your bins display all existing media objects except source clips.
To reduce crowding in the bin and to display only those objects that you
need to organize your project, you can display selected media objects.
You can use the Set Bin Display option to display clips referenced by a
sequence, even if the clips were not previously in the bin. Place a sequence
in a new bin and follow this procedure.
