How can you add a timecode effect as a burn-in on a clip?

To add a timecode effect as a burn-in on a clip, you would drag the Timecode effect onto a clip in a sequence. This method allows you to apply the effect directly to the specific clip, ensuring that it displays the timecode information over that clip when played back or exported. By applying the effect directly to the clip rather than the entire sequence or through other methods, you maintain more control over which elements of your project display the timecode.

This process is crucial for projects where precise timing and synchronization are important, such as in video editing, where editors need to identify specific frames or segments quickly. It's an effective way to embed timecode visually, allowing for easy reference during reviews and collaborations.
