Smart Bins utilize what type of information?

• A. Metadata of clips
• B. Color grading data
• C. Audio waveform data
• D. Project settings

Answer: (A)

Smart Bins use metadata of clips. They function as dynamic organizers that pull together footage based on information attached to each clip—such as keywords, comments, frame rate, resolution, file type, and other metadata fields. This allows you to automatically group related shots without manually selecting every clip.

Color grading data is about how the image looks and is stored as adjustments on the clip, not as searchable metadata. Audio waveform data represents the audio signal, which isn’t used to categorize or filter clips in a bin. Project settings apply globally to the entire project rather than to individual clips, so they don’t drive Smart Bin organization.
