Nesting a clip is where a highlighted selection of video clips are simply grouped together into one item on the timeline. This means that all of your videos can now be moved around on the timeline without having to select each and every item in the sequence. It also allows for a lot of space to be cleared on the timeline if you are working on a large project.
I will be using my Windsurfing Project as an example.
First, select all of the video clips you want to nest.
Ctrl+Click on the highlighted clips and select 'Nest...'
Call the nested sequence whatever you like.
Every one of your highlighted videos are now nested together
into one large green clip on the timeline.
This technique, as mentioned before, is brilliant for grouping everything together in order to clear space on the Timeline while still retaining your work. All transitions and video effects will be retained; the only difference is how the clip is presented on the Timeline. You can also undo this with Cmd+Z if you wish to.
