What is Sub Clipping
In CORE, a sub clip is a section of an original video clip that you want to trim, manage, and organize separately for your production. You work with sub clips in a timeline as you do with your original clip. Trimming a subclip is constrained by its start and end points.

Sub Clip FAQs
Is the sub clip source the same as the original?
Subclipping creates a clip from the proxy, so the "Source" of the subclip is the high-rez proxy of the original.
What data is in the sub clip file name?
The clip when created defaults naming convention wise to include the frames of the original clip
Why do I have to categorize the clip?
The system treats the clip like a new file that should be categorized in whatever manner you wish
Does every Core user have the ability to make a sub clip?
A user needs to have Upload + Categorization permissions in order to submit a subclip, because the platform treats the clip like a newly ingested file. Because the Subclip feature is available on all video files, if a user without said permissions attempts to make a clip, they will receive an alert within the player that they need uploader permissions to submit sub clips,
