Automate to timeline in FCP? at DVinfo.net

I am new to FCP...as I am switching from Premiere. I was wondering if there is an automate to timeline feature in FCP.

In Premiere I could build a storyboard then download the whole thing to into the timeline at preset markers which I set to the music. I have not been able to find this feature with FCP.

Can anyone advise?

Thanks
Steve

hi Steve,

If you turn your Bin into a thumbnail view you can storyboard your sequence.

In the timeline you can drop markers

Thanks for the tip....that will make things easier. Is it possible to do all clips at once?
