While you're watching, you can pull individual clips or shots aside into a new review of your own — a selects reel. It's a quick way to gather the takes or scenes you want to come back to, or pass on.
A selects reel starts life as a draft: only you can see it, and you'll find it under All Reviews.
Add a shot or scene
While you're watching in the Review Player, open the Add to review menu for the shot or scene you want. There are two ways in:
select the shot or scene name in the player footer, or
in the footer's expanded view, click the + on its thumbnail.
From the menu, pick a review to add it to — a tick shows it's already in, and picking it again takes it back out. A confirmation appears with an Undo, in case you change your mind. To start a fresh selects reel instead, choose New review, give it a name, and Create and add clip.
The list only shows reviews the shot or scene can actually join, based on where it came from:
from a cut, you can add to other cuts or No type reviews — not dailies reels;
from a dailies reel, to other dailies reels or No type reviews — not cuts;
from a No type review, only to other No type reviews.
A new selects reel is a No type review, so anything can start one.
Keep adding quickly
Once a shot is in a review, the quickest way to keep adding is the + button — it drops straight into the same review as last time, without opening the menu. The A key does the same from your keyboard. If that last review isn't a compatible type for the shot you're adding, the menu opens instead so you can choose another.
Publish the reel
A selects reel stays a draft — visible only to you — until you publish it. When you're ready for other people to see it:
Open the reel from All Reviews to bring up its review drawer.
Click Publish, then check the details and confirm.
What happens on publish depends on the reel's type. If its project runs a workflow, publishing submits the reel automatically and shares it with the relevant people, as set by the project. If there's no workflow, publishing makes it live and you share it yourself — the confirm button reads Publish and Share it and takes you straight to sharing.
Publishing can't be undone.
