Exercise 7.1: Performing a Radio Edit

In this exercise, a rough cut of the Agent Zero scene has been created. The editor is no longer on the project and you have been hired to finish the edit. The purpose of this exercise is to allow you an opportunity to practice using Trim mode with its keyboard shortcuts. You are not to use Lift or Extract, nor are you to use the Smart Tool.

To perform a radio edit:

1. Open the AGENT MXZERO PROJECT > 201 > LESSON 7 DLG. EDITING > LESSON 7 SEQUENCES > PART 1: ROUGH CUT.

2. Disable V1’s VIDEO MONITORING.

3. Perform a radio edit using the goals outlined at the beginning of this exercise.

You may edit nonlinearly, in any order, starting wherever in the sequence you like.
