Re: [Avid-L2] Turnaround edit suggestions?

I moonlight in OB trucks at ball games, not as a lead EVS but Replay Only.
I've seen lead EVS ops build the highlight "melt" with very rough ins and
outs on each clip, and begin playing it as soon as we're off the air. They
then make edits as they go - adjusting ins and outs to shorten the
highlights to just the necessary action. All the while, the total time of
the playlist is displayed in the playback monitor. Clips can be added or
deleted as necessary.

Again I'm not a lead operator so I don't know the details of what can be
done in EVS, but it would seem to me keeping it all in EVS would be one
option.
