# Create a sequence

> Bundle camera angles, mics, and screen recordings into one sequence.

A sequence bundles several tracks into one unit you edit together from your script, so multi-source footage stays in sync as you cut.

This guide walks through several ways to create a sequence in Descript. If you’re new to sequences or unsure when to use them, start with our [sequence overview](/script-editing/multi-track-sequences-overview).

## Create a sequence from project files

You can create a sequence from files you've already added to your project.

1. Open the **Project** panel.
2. Select the files you want to combine by holding `Cmd` (Mac) or `Ctrl` (Windows) and clicking them.
3. In the preview window that appears at the top of the panel, click **Create sequence**.

The sequence will appear in your script and timeline as a single item. You can now edit all tracks together from the script. [Learn more about editing your video from the transcript →](/getting-started/edit-like-a-doc)

**Need to re-align your sequence?** Use the Multi-Track Autosync button in the sequence editor. It aligns two or more audio-enabled tracks automatically. To make adjustments manually, use the [Sequence Editor](/script-editing/sequence-editor).

## Other ways to create a sequence

### Start from an empty composition

When you create a new, empty composition, you can click the **Multicam & multitrack** button in the center of the screen. This creates an empty sequence and opens the Sequence Editor, where you can manually add files and build your sequence.

### Start with an empty sequence

Click the **+** button in the **Project** panel under **Files** and select **Sequence**. The Sequence Editor will open where you can manually add files and build your sequence.

<Warning>
  **Don't forget: Add your sequence to the script**

  After you create a sequence, it’s stored in the **Sequences** folder in your **Project** panel — but it won’t appear in your script until you add it.

  To add it, drag the sequence into the script or click **Insert into script**. If you can’t find your sequence, make sure the **Sequences** folder is expanded in the Project panel.

  Until it’s added to the script, you won’t be able to edit the sequence or view its transcript.
