Re: [Avid-L2] Re: The "tape is dead" thread

 

This is an area where file based sources have helped me.
My usual XDCam workflow is to AMA one disk at a time.
String all the related clips into a sequence.
T&T out the parts that I know will never be used.
Consolidate the sequence to Unity or local drives.

When I'm editing, I often load a consolidated sequence into the source
monitor and scrub through it looking for shots. I do occasionally find
something better than what I thought I was looking for. Works best if
the consolidated sequences are fairly short and contain related
material. --J.B.
