Sequence to Sequence Editing 37 37 You can edit from one sequence to another, either by nesting one sequence into another, or by actually editing the clips from one sequence to another. This chapter covers the following:  Methods for Editing Clips From One Sequence to Another (p. 539)  Opening More Than One Sequence at a Time (p. 540)  Copying Clips From One Sequence to Another (p. 540)  Nesting Sequences (p. 544)  Editing the Content of One Sequence Into Another Without Nesting It (p. 547) Note: If you're looking for basic information about sequences, see Chapter 20,"Working With Projects, Clips, and Sequences," on page 261. Methods for Editing Clips From One Sequence to Another Often when you're editing, you'll be working with more than one sequence. For example, you may create one sequence for each scene in a movie, or use different sequences for various versions of your project. At some point, you may need to copy clips from one sequence to another. Copying information between sequences is fairly easy and can be done several ways. You can also edit entire sequences into other sequences, commonly called nesting. There are a few different ways to add content from one sequence to another:  Copying and pasting clips from one sequence into another  Using three-point editing to edit clips from a sequence open in the Viewer to a destination sequence in the Canvas or Timeline Important: Editing clips between sequences with different dimensions, frame rates, and codecs will apply motion parameters, such as distortion and aspect ratio adjustments, to the resulting clips in the destination sequence. To remove these parameters, see "Reusing Effect and Motion Parameters" on page 745. 539
