Saving my clips to use in other projects? (SV9)

Postby Yasha-Chan69 » Wed Jul 29, 2009 8:10 pm

I downloaded Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9 Platinum edition (30 day free trial, but I am pretty sure I will be buying it, possibly the Pro platinum edition of SVMS9 a few more features) and I am already in love. I know it's the "consumer version" of Vegas 9, and has limits, but since I am stepping up from WMM, this is 100 times better than what I was previously working with and I am quite happy wetting my feet in the big kid pool with this. Once I master this program, then I may consider moving up to Pro (Though I can already see only 4 video lines max is going to be an issue...). But anyway, I've started my first AMV and I am using Origin footage that I ripped myself from my brothers DVD. All in all very proud of myself, happy with the quality of the source footage. It's great. I just finished cutting out all the potentially useful clips from the movie and I am ready to start editing, but I know I want to do at least one more Origin video, possibly more, to other songs and I don't want to spend more hours going through the footage taking out clips again. Is there any way for me to take the clips I just pulled out and save them so I can load them later, for another project?

You can use media bins. I think a topic actually similar to this, but I believe you can use media bins to do that. Idk, i've never toyed with it myself, I just pick out the clips from the converted clips every time. I mean I'm editing to the same footage, but not using the same exact scenes in the next amv so I might as well redo it.

as for buying, please consider when you purchase that Vegas9.0 is only better for stuff beyond AMV work. So if you wanna buy pro you could buy 5.0 or 6.0 or 7.0 pro for a lot cheaper and still be perfectly fine.
