Issues with viewing clips in the Source Monitor

[Artyom301548904i3d]

I am working with long-length found footage, which I cut into smaller clips in a sequence.

After cutting, I order/categorize them into different folders, after which I need to assemble a new video from the small clips.

The problem starts when I view my individual clips in the Source Monitor.

As I understand, Premiere doesn't actually see them as individual clips; instead, it sees them as In and Out points inside my original long footage. It would be fine if it only played from In to Out, but if I let it play, it goes over the out point. Sometimes, when I come back to the same clip after viewing others, it starts where the playhead was left on the last viewing, which is outside of my selection. See image.

My question is: How can I view my clips in the exact way (length)  that I cut them?"

You can make subclips ... that are named as you wish. And listed individually in bins.

Past that, you would need to perhaps do a "render & replace" on the sequence, to a good format like ProRes422 or DNx HQ, so they work as full digital intermediate files. Then you have actual new clips living on disc to work from.

Thank you Niel,

The Subclips work. Do you know if it's possible to create Subclips from videos on the timeline, istead of the Source Monitor.

My Problem is the following: Im working with long found footage. I use the "Scene Edit Detection" function and it automaticaly cuts the video and creates a folder with Subclips, wich is great! BUT the function is often has faults (it cuts on wrong frames, or where is not needed). So for me would be ideal first  to go through my timeline, inspecting and correcting the cuts and only after create a folder with the Sublips.

It's a quick test. Select in/out points on a sequence, and right-click it. Check the context menu to see if create subclip is an option.
