How You Use the Browser

The Browser is a powerful tool used to organize your project’s clips. In the Browser,

you can sort, rename, and rearrange hundreds of clips in a multitude of ways. You

can also customize how the Browser displays information about clips to suit your

preferred work habits.

You can think of the Browser as a way of viewing and manipulating your clips as if they

were in a database or spreadsheet. Each row represents a clip or sequence, and each

column represents a property field containing information about that clip or sequence.

Note: For more information about the basic organizational elements of Final Cut Pro—

media files, clips, sequences, bins, and projects—and how they relate to the Browser,

see Chapter 3, “Understanding Projects, Clips, and Sequences,” on page 27.
