      Column Headers

  3. Fill in the second row of the CSV with the following timecodes, in HH:MM:SS:FF format:
    1. The start timecode of the texted content from within the MOV source file. This value must be the same as the beginning timecode of the MOV file.
    2. The end timecode of the texted content from within the MOV source file;
    3. The start timecode of the textless content from within the MOV source file;
    4. The end timecode of the textless content from within the MOV source file;
    5. The start timecode of the daytime MOV source file;
    6. The end timecode of the daytime MOV source file;
    7. The start timecode of the uncensored MOV source file;
    8. The end timecode of the uncensored MOV source file;
    9. Data for the Clip Name on the second row must be blank;
    10. Data for the Clip Description on the second row must be blank.

      11. Second Row

  4. The rest of the rows must contain a pair of In-Out values for either Texted, Textless, Daytime, or Uncensored sections, together with the Clip Name and Clip Description fields.

    Note: The duration of a clip must be the same across all sections and its timecodes must be included within the source file it is referenced in.

    Subsequent Rows

  5. Once you have finished defining the In-Out values for the clips, save the file as CSV, with a file name that does not exist in your S3 Storage.
