As you work, it is really common to duplicate your project so you can save different versions. This allows you to go back if the current version is corrupted. In this video, explore the differences between working with snapshots and working with versioning duplicates in Final Cut Pro X.
- [Man] As you work,…it's really common to duplicate your project,…you know, versions as you go.…I just want to show you the difference between duplicate…and duplicate as a snapshot.…As I've been working here,…I've been mostly using command + d, duplicating project,…and that's fine, but there's a second choice here…that's important to know about,…duplicating a project as a snapshot.…And basically, what that does is it take any nests,…any multicams, and it freezes them…so changes don't ripple forward.…I'm going to take these three clips here…in the secondary story line.…
I'm going to right click and I'm going to say,…create a new compound clip, option + g.…It's essentially a nest.…And we'll call this Snapshot example.…If I continue to duplicate this timeline, Tahoe Dissolve,…as I make changes, I'm great,…but if I for whatever reason were to go in…and do something to one of these clips,…for example, I'll select the middle clip,…and I'm going to add, I double click to open that up,…I'll select the middle clip and I'll add a blur to it.…
