6 ways to organise clips in your browser:

1) You can rename each clip by double clicking on the clip you want to rename and writing in what you want to call it.



2) You can make different folders for each type of data. These are called 'bins' in final cut pro. You want to create 'bins' for your 'footage', 'audio' and 'still images'. To do this you press cmd+B to create a new bin you then drag the data you want into different 'bins'. You name your 'bins' as you create them.  

3)You can reorganise each column in the browser tab. If you are in standard setting then you will need to click on the bottom right hand corner of your browser tab and drag it out so you can view the whole browser tab.

4)Move the 'good' column in the browser tab all the way to the left so you can click on the boxesweather you like the clips or not.

5) Move the 'log note' column closer to the clips so that when you write about each clip it is easier to view and you can then see what notes you have on that clip.

6)Change the file colour of your clips. To do this you will
need to right click in the browser tab and scroll down to 'label' then click on the different colours you want each clip to be.

How to set up a project in final cut pro:

To set up a project in final cut pro you must first make sure you have transferred your clips to the computer before editing. Once you gave done this you will then open up final cut pro.

Click in the left hand corner on 'Final cut pro' go to 'system settings'

Then click on the first 'set' at the top of this new window. Create a new folder and call it what you like. (I named mine 'freya' because that is my name). Then set 'wayform cachier', 'thumbnail' and 'autosave vault' to your folder.

You then want to put the data you want to use in your folder. so go to your new folder and create another folder within your folder. name this folder 'footage'. You then need to add the footage, audio, pictures etc that you want.

You then want to go to 'file' and 'save project as' then save it in the file you created at the very beginning.

your folder should then look like this:

extra note: If your screen on final cut pro does not look how you are used to it looking then click on 'window' go to 'arange' and click 'standard'
