Creating a Subclip in Avid Express Pro

Avid Subclipping.gif Subclipping is a very important part of the edting process. You create subclips to make shorter and more relivant clips to edit from.

Here are the steps to take to create a subclip:

1. Load your clip into the Source monitor.
2. Mark and in and out where you would like the clip to start and end.
3. Hold down the Alt key and click the source monitor and drag the subclip into the desired bin.
4. Name the sub-clip

You have now made a more manageable clip to edit from. The great thing about master clips is that because you have made a subclip from your master clip the subclip can be expanded in trim mode to reveal more footage.
