Editing long-form projects: What's the Vegas workflow?

Hello, everyone,

A few months ago I have added Vegas Video to my set of tools. I used to use Pinnacle's Liquid Edition before, but it couldn't handle non-DV media of my animation projects well, so I switched to Vegas.

Now I am about to edit my first long-form (DV-)project, a sixty minute documentary, and am in the process of deciding whether to use Vegas or go back to Liquid.

Has anyone got some advice how to organise such a project in Vegas?
For example in Liquid even with shorter films I heavily relied on the nested sequences (=timelines) for experimenting and I am not quite sure how I can do without them.
But then again, people surely have used Vegas successfully on documentaries (right?) and I would love to hear about their experience.

Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Marc
