I've been doing a lot of green screen stuff lately and I would like to 
have a workflow similar to this, but find that I'm having to drag the 
whole video to the time line, apply the necessary effect to get the 
green screen looking nice and then start cutting the video up. Otherwise 
I get stuck with having to set things up on the first clip and then do 
past effects over and over sometimes 100 times.

Does anyone know of something I may have missed that would allow me to 
set effects in bulk on a bunch of clips... or is there possibly a better 
way of doing what I'm doing.

If it helps with looking at what kinds of videos I have been doing, all 
the videos I have done on my youtube channel have been run though 
kdenlive, and are mostly just presentations to our local Linux users 
group, so they all have been edited in a similar style as described above:
