Re: Simple problem with timeline manipulation
by Steve Johnson (sjohnson) on Jun 21, 2008 at 7:40:53 pm

I was wondering why the tracks were all pink. I do have an outpoint set on the timeline. It's there because I wanted to export only that range of my timeline to a .mov. But I guess using 3point editing rules, I have to change that a bit once I'm done with that. I'll try removing the outpoint on the timeline and click the insert(v key) and make my first edit.

This makes a lot of sense. So far, I'm liking Avid MC. I can tell it's more powerful than Premier, and the effects are 10x better than what I can do in Adobe. But the GUI is just a bit laborious. I'm used to the snap-to in Adobe, makes lining up beginning and ends of clips easy. Haven't seen that yet in MC, but I'll find it I'm sure.

I bought an Avid MC keyboard cover, so I'm going to start trying to use it. The whole "try not to drag/drop" is like loosing a limb for me, so I'm going to need some help! I've been a mac user for ages and in Mac world, you drag/drop! I've got a few Avid books coming from amazon, and watching the online training at Lynda. So hopefully I can get up to speed soon!

Thanks for the help! I think I'm going to get to know you guys in this forum pretty well.... >:) I'm still working on getting keyframing audio/video and effects basics..
