创建子剪辑Creating Subclips

简介Overview

处理大量素材（尤其是长片段）时，常用的技巧是创建一系列 subclip（子剪辑）。在第 1 课中，你已经接触过子剪辑——从访谈长片段里截取 soundbite 来剪辑时，子剪辑比原始长片段更便于操作。Another technique commonly used when dealing with large amounts of footage, especially long clips, is to create a series of subclips. You encountered subclips in Lesson 1 when you edited soundbites from the interview, and the subclips made it easier to work with smaller portions of footage rather than the very long interview clips they were taken from.

关于子剪辑，关键是：虽然它从更长的片段中创建，但指向的还是同一份源媒体文件。因此无论创建多少子剪辑，都不会额外占用磁盘空间。The important thing to remember about subclips is that, while they are created from a longer clip, they refer to the same source media files on your system. As a result, they don’t take up any more space on your system, regardless of how many subclips you create.

另外，子剪辑最初会继承源片段的 metadata（元数据），但它本身是完全独立的片段——可以存放在不同的 bin（箱）中，也拥有各自独立的元数据。Also, while subclips will initially inherit the metadata of the clip they are created from, the subclip itself is a completely independent clip. This means that you can store them in different bins, and they can each have their own metadata.
