When you mark footage with IN and OUT points, you can either save the entire clip along with the new marks, or you can create subclips based on the marks you set to break up longer master clips into smaller segments of selected footage.
This is similar to creating circle takes of all of your best footage before editing. Subclips do not directly reference the original media. Subclips remain linked to the master clips from which they are created, and the master clips, in turn, reference the recorded media files located on your storage drives. As a result, none of the original footage is lost.
Subclips do not limit your access to the original, recorded master clip material when trimming. Therefore, if you must trim beyond the marked IN to OUT points of the subclip to make it longer or shorter, your system accommodates the adjustments during the trim. For more information on trimming,
