Displaying keyword smart bins

Smart bins search your entire project to group clips based on metadata that you define.

For example, you can create a smart bin that automatically finds all of the audio clips in

yourproject or all of the clips captured using a specific camera. Best of all, a smart bin’s

contents will continually update as new footage is added to your project. That means you

don’t have to manually organize footage when using metadata and smart bins. Smart bins

are automatically created for any keyword you tag to a clip. They are displayed at the

bottom of the bin list.

1 At the bottom of the bin list in the media pool, click the disclosure arrow to reveal the

Interview smart bin.

2 Select the interview smart bin to display the clips

The smart bin appears at the bottom of the media pool and displays all of the clips that

contain the keyword. Any new keywords applied to clips will automatically create a

smart bin and display in the smart bin section of the bin list.

Creating custom smart bins

You just displayed a simple keyword smart bin. But smart bins can be much smarter! You

can create custom smart bins that use multiple layers of criteria for more advanced

clipselection.

1 Right-click under the Interview smart bin, and in the menu, choose add smart bin.

The create smart bin dialog appears. In this dialog, you set up the rules that determine

which clips are automatically added to this custom smart bin. The criteria options are

many, enabling you to create smart bins that group clips based on a wide range of

auto-generated and manually entered metadata. For this smart bin, you’ll look for all of

the clips that are not interview clips.

2 In the create smart bin dialog, in the name field, enter B-Roll.
