TRAINING DESCRIPTION

Shooting with multiple cameras is increasingly common, especially for performances and sports. However, editing multiple cameras – called “multicam editing” – can be challenging, especially as the number of cameras you are editing increases.

In this video training, watch host, Larry Jordan, explain what you need to know to edit multiple cameras successfully; starting with your hardware and storage. Then, in a series of detailed, step-by-step tutorials, Larry shows you how to build, modify, edit, and trim multicam clips. Plus, he also covers a series of little-known techniques on editing multi-channel audio, transitions and effects that can bring entirely new levels of power and flexibility to your edits.

These techniques can save you time, improve your editing, and give you greater flexibility in solving problems. Plus, multicam editing is just plain fun. You’ll learn how, in this training.

AUDIENCE LEVEL

This intermediate-level webinar is designed for editors who have a basic understanding of editing in Final Cut Pro X. (This video training plays as a QuickTime movie. You don’t need to own any other software to watch this movie.)
