Hi! I have followed You advices, the only thing that doesn`t work: if export from the synced sequence the Quicktime-Referencemovie, as You show, I have a movie, that is bigger, that original movie.
F.e. the original movie from 1st camera is 700 MB, the exported "Referencemovie" - 11 GB! What is my error?
Apple announced the new version of Final Cut Studio today. There are many improvements, but it appears that most fundamental characteristics of multiclips (and their limitations) has not changed. In the video below we show some tricks to get the most out of multiclips. Along the way we answer some questions that we get asked frequently about PluralEyes, our product that automatically synchronizes clips without the need for timecode. What if some of the cameras are turned on and off during the shoot? Will that still work?Can I have an audio-only track? Because I made a separate high-quality audio recording. (This technique is known as dual-system audio)How do I get multiclips to work? I want to edit while seeing all the cameras at once in a multi-angle display.The script of the tutorial comes below the video. (View larger version of the video.) (iPod-compatible version) For this example we shot a band with three cameras and a separate audio recorder. We've captured the clips and put them all into ProRes 422 at 1280x720 30 fps. They could be a different format, but they all need to be the same for a multiclip. To start editing we first make a sequence called pluraleyes and arrange the clips onto the timeline. Each camera goes on a separate track and the audio goes on its own track. We start PluralEyes. (It's a standalone application in the Applications folder.) We press the Sync button. After a minute we've got a sequence with everything in sync. So right away we have the answer to the first two questions: we see that having cameras turned on and off is no problem, and having a separate audio track works just fine. Multiclips will take a couple of extra steps, but it will be worth it. Final Cut Pro is a bit fussy about multiclips but once you've set them up they work great. First we notice that PluralEyes says it couldn't make a multiclip because of the audio-only track. But even if it could you wouldn't like the result. Final Cut puts every clip into a separate angle.
