Creating and Saving Projects

When you create a new project in Final Cut Pro, a new blank sequence is automatically

created and named Sequence 1. You can change the sequence name to better reflect its

content or the type of program you’ll be working on. The settings for the new sequence

are determined by your current Easy Setup. (To check your current Easy Setup, choose

Final Cut Pro > Easy Setup.) For more information, see “Audio/Video Settings and Easy

Setups.”

Note: When you open Final Cut Pro for the first time, there are some initial settings you

must specify before you can create and save projects. For more information, see

“Connecting DV Video Equipment.”

To create a new project

Choose File > New Project.

A new, untitled project appears in the Browser with an empty sequence. You can name

the project when you save it.
