What is the procedure called that lets you add an effect on top of an existing effect?

• A. Layer nesting
• B. Auto-nesting
• C. Nesting
• D. Stacked effects

Answer: (B)

When you build a chain of effects on a clip, you’re working with a layered stack. Auto-nesting is the feature that automatically creates a nested sequence so you can add another effect on top of what’s already there. It preserves the existing effect as the base and places the new effect above it inside the nested container, keeping the order clear and making it easy to tweak each layer without disturbing the others. You could achieve the same result manually by nesting first, but auto-nesting handles that step for you automatically. Nesting describes putting content into a sub-sequence, and stacked effects just means multiple effects on a clip—the automatic nesting is specifically about enabling another effect to sit atop the current one.
