Make Multiclip Magic in Final Cut Pro

Purchase

Multiclips give us the ability to edit multiple cameras at the same time within Apple Final Cut Pro. This new technique is especially useful for creating performance videos, reality shows, action sequences, even sitcoms.

The key to a successful multi-cam project starts with good planning. So, this session is in two parts: Part 1 covers what you need to think about during pre-production, pre-edting, and editorial to avoid problems and simplify your work.

Then, in Part 2, we'll shift gears and dive into Final Cut Pro and show you how to build, modify, and edit multiclips. Whether you are new to multiclips or an experienced hand, you'll discover lots of new techniques to simplify, speed, or supercharge your work!

Audience Level
Multiclips require Final Cut Pro 5 or later. To make the most of this session, you should have a basic understanding of how to edit inside Final Cut Pro. Knowledge of multiclips is not required, as this training will take you from a standing start to become an expert.
