Drop the Black Frame on the Timeline.

### Import Media

Select Import Clips and import whatever media you will be using in your shot, then arrange it so that all the media is above the Black frame, as a "Version".

### Re-name the Clip

Click on the bottom of the Black frame, where it says "Black", here you can re-name your shot.&#x20;

Now double-click on the Black frame to enter the shot.&#x20;

### Change the shot length

Go to the Live FX Menu, change the Shot Length Out to match your media or however long you want it to be. You can also change the In if you want to start later in your shot. You can change this later if you are not sure yet.

### Scale and re-position your clip

If you want to scale your video, you can hold down Shift and grab the orange frame then drag right or left to scale up or down. Click and drag to move the video wherever you want it.

### Covert the video to Rec2020

On the right side menu, click on the Node Tree Tab.&#x20;

Select the bottom node, which is the source node of the video clip you imported.&#x20;

Click the button that says "Nest"

Now select the nest node, which is right above the source node and it has an icon of a square with an arrow that points to the right.

Go to the Media menu, change the Color to Rec2020, Gamma 2.4, and press the Apply button. The apply button will have an orange indicator to let you know it is active.

To get back to your main shot, click on the top node from the Node Tree menu.&#x20;

I repeat the steps for two more videos, and this is what the node tree looks like afterward.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://assimilate.gitbook.io/live-fx-documentation/lighting/rec2020-example-project/create-and-set-up-your-shot.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
