The purpose of this tutorial is to demonstrate the process of customizing your breakdown data view in Hudl Video Editor.
In Hudl Video Editor, you have the option of customizing the way you view the data columns. You are able to hide and arrange columns to best suit your workflow. You are also able to edit the values of the breakdown columns you created.
Customizing your data column view is a way to make your workflow more efficient. It gives you the ability to arrange columns in a pertinent order, according to the specific part of the game you are breaking down. Your view on Hudl Video Editor is separate from your view on Hudl.com. If you add a column in Hudl Video Editor, you will need to Edit Your Data View on Hudl.com in order to have the column show up in your data view on Hudl.com.
