slowed down at 60% instead of 40 and I've logged all of footage... now what?

Hi Community,

So I spend over a week going through our company's extensive b-roll. When we have 60 fps footage, here is my workflow:

• I select of the footage in the "project" window and right click, choose "Speed/Duration" and slow down the footage.
• In the "source" window I use  I & O for In & Out, then use period and coma to insert the footage into the sequence of b-roll I have.

Now the main issue is that I when I ajusted the speed/duration pf the 60fps footage, I've slowed down to 60% instead of 40%. So that means each clip in my sequence should be longer that what it is once I slow it down to 40%... So I am unsure on what to do in order to slow down the footage to 40% and still have my ins and outs respected without having to redo everything.

Any suggestions?

As a test, select let´s say ten clips on the timeline and click Ctrl+R to bring up the Clip Speed/Duration dialog and set the new speed in the Speed box and make sure to tick Ripple Edit, Trailing Clips and click OK. This should change the speed/duration and at the same time keep your ins and outs.

The Ripple Edit, Trailing Clips option is your friend here. 🙂
