Multiple Cuts and Reels
329
To create a single cut list for several sequences:
1. Make sure the sequences are named so that they are sorted in the proper order in the Cut
List tool.
2. Ctrl+click (Windows) or Shift+click (Macintosh) the chosen sequences in the bin, and
then drag them to the Sequences pane.
3. Select the options you want, and then generate the list.
The cut list provides lists for the sequences in order.
Creating Change Lists Across Multiple Reels
When you load comparable sequences, FilmScribe generates consecutive, appended lists for
each set of cuts. You can make comparisons based either on reel numbers or on preview code
that you assign to each sequence.
Depending on the options you select, the new list notes any of the standard change
categories across the reels:
• Insertions of new material
• Deletions of material no longer needed
• Trims to be made to the heads and tails of the edits
• Moves that consist of a matched pair of deletions and insertions
• Optional information that details which portions of the sequence should not be altered
In addition, you can generate separate lists for each set of reels and simultaneously generate
a single dupe list that describes duplicated shots across all the reels. These topics are
described in this section.
Using Reel Numbers
When you use reel numbers to generate change lists for multiple reels, observe the following
conditions:
• For each sequence, the old version and the new version must have exactly the same reel
number in order for the system to make the appropriate comparisons.
• The reel numbers must be typed into the Reel # column in the bin for each sequence.
• The reel numbers must be consecutive so that the system can generate lists that match
the appropriate order of the reels; for example, sequence 1.1, sequence 1.2, and so on.
• You must have an equal number of old and new sequences. If necessary, create a dummy
sequence to balance the reels.
