Each scene in an individual sequence? or all media clips in one single big timeline?

Hi. I'm working on a 1-hour documentary and I don't have much experience using Adobe Premiere Pro.

I'm curious what the best way to set up the project in the timeline would be and due to my inexperience with this software, I'm afraid to overlook the preferable option.

There will be approximately 35-40 scenes.

I would like a way to be able to reshuffle the scenes quickly and easily, testing out different approaches in regards to the scene-order. This leads me to think that maybe the best option for me is to place each scene in its own sequence (individual timeline). Then nest each scene as a sequence in a "main" sequence containing the entire project.

Does that make sense?

The last time used Adobe PP was about 2 years ago and I did something similar and somehow recall having issues when exporting (rendering). As if maybe there were too many nested sequences. Then again, I could very well not be remembering correctly what the difficulty was accurately. I also recall some complications with later doing the final mix of the audio. It was a hectic and rushed project that we just needed to push through and it was my first time working on Adobe PP, so my recollection of those issues is a bit foggy.

From what I've managed to research on the web, it seems some like to do as I described while others like to keep all individual media clips on one big timeline.

What would be the advantages and disadvantages of each approach?

If putting all individual clips in one timeline for entire project (no nested scenes) - what would be the best way to be able to quickly identify individual scenes in a way that they can be easily picked up and inserted at different points in the timeline? I know there is grouping, but that doesn't make it visually clear where each scene is located. I thought of maybe using labels, but that doesn't seem like the best option either.

Would be happy to get recommendations on how to organize the timeline in this respect for a typical 30-40 scene documentary project.

Thanks!
