Movie Clip Indicators

When a shot is rendered out to a clip, Maya draws a ‘movie clip indicator’ line under the shot to give an you visual feedback on the shot status. This indicator provides information on both the range of the clip and its status.

The Shot Movie Indicator displays the extents of the movie clip associated (using either the various Camera SequencerPlayblast menu items, or directly through the Attach Image Plane), with the current shot.

If you trim a shot after you playblast, the movie clip indicator extends out past the ends of the shot to indicate there are additional movie frames on disk. If the shot source range is extended, the movie clip indicator appears shorter than the shot.

Movie Clip Indicators underline shots in the shot view area. The style and color of the indicator shows you the synchronization status of the clip. Look for the following indicators to understand the status of a clip:
