All right, welcome back. So in the last lesson we imported our folders as well as our footage. And we can see all our folders here with our video clips inside, so you just want to double check you've got everything. Notice that some of these clips have a frame rate of 120 frames per second. Some have 23.9 or close to 24 frames. Some are 30 so this is the new world of video that we live in because cameras are becoming more fancy more high tech 120 frames is very good for buttery smooth slow motion 24 frames is the film look 29.97 this is what my camera will use for slow motion.
So we have to make a decision when We create our project wide resolution and one frame rates. If you want to see the video resolution, you can either find it here video info, but I don't know why it's all the way there. So I'm just going to drag this column. So it's easier to view because sometimes when I'm looking for a clip it's very important to see this information. Okay, again, the other view you have is the icon view to get a quick visual. Okay, so before we can actually start our project, I recommend getting some music.
And then after that, we're going to create our first sequence next Start working in the monitor and the timeline. Let's just quickly go over the monitor because I did promise you. So to start working on the monitor, you need to highlight a clip. So you can either preview the clip here in the media browser, but it's a little bit small. Or what I like to do is double click it, and then you can see see it in the big screen. Now another tip I'll give you is to press the Tilda that will make it even bigger.
And what you need to know in the monitor is that just a way to allow you to quickly preview the clip. So you can choose which portion of the clip you want to insert into the timeline. And to do that, you can make your star points which they call market And let's say I want this endpoint here. Right. So let's go back to the minimize view by pressing Tilda. So with that portion highlighted, I can now drag in just video into the timeline.
It's not created yet. Or I can drag just the audio or if I drag the entire picture by drag it from the actual video image and dragging the timeline, it brings video and audio. We also have the ability to grab get a screen grab from wherever the needle is on the monitor. Okay, so that's all I'm going to cover on the monitor. That's pretty much the functions that I use. And let's go look for some music now.
