Re: [Avid-L2] Re: FCP X... Discuss...

 

Strikes me that nothing has gone away (though obviously I could be
proved wrong come June.) It looks like every keyword IS a bin, so
you're not losing that part of the organisation and there's no need to
"perform a search operation" to look at your subclips. Once you've set
up a keyword/bin, you should then be able to drop your marked clips
into that to create your subclips (which are then keyworded as per the
name of the bin.) I would assume then that you just choose thumbnail
view to see all the head frames.

Personally, I like the sound of the idea and can't see what we're
missing from previous functionality, regardless of NLE. But we'll just
have to wait and see.
