Re: [Avid-L2] What's your best Avid Tip/Discovery from 2012?

 

I hope you get a few more responses on this topic, John.

I've been working on a doc with lots of subtitled rushes the last few
months, and have become a big fan of reverse-matchframe.

My source footage has all become source sequences, with subtitle effects
applied for rough translation. So simple things like trimming or
match-frame are no longer that simple, since they don't give me access
to the subtitles.

But I can load an assembly of subtitled rushes in the source window,
activate the sequence monitor, hit reverse matchframe, and be able to
access adjacent footage including subtitles with relative ease.

Not really a new discovery -- just a feature I hadn't found much use for
before (which turns out to be invaluable!)

Cheers,
--Michael
