Wondering how some editors like their scene bins laid out? Here’s an example illustration from Every Frame Counts. #PostChat #PostSky

That's so cool!! How do you make notes like that in Avid?

I do it with a combination of imported JPEGs and preset sequences. The sequences have a piece of blank media with a color effect on them, and a SubCap effect that allows me to change the text without creating new media. More on this around p. 113 (still awaiting final proof pages!)

Thankyou!

Every editor has their own preferences, but creating little “Post-It”-style notes helps communicate more visually. Link below for more info about the book before it comes out!

And here I thought the post-it notes in the bin were my secret trick! I’ll be pre-ordering this for an up-and-coming AE I know when it’s available
