You can copy and paste video and audio attributes, as well as color corrections, from one clip to multiple clips using the Paste Attributes command. This is a fast way to apply video and audio adjustments and effects from one clip to many others in the Timeline.


To copy attributes:

1 Select a clip with attributes you want to apply to other clips, and press Command-C.

2 Select one or more other clips to paste to.

3 Choose Edit > Paste Attributes (Option-V), or right-click one of the selected clips and choose Paste Attributes from the contextual menu.
