  • Simultaneous view of two camera angles in the timeline

    Posted by Berndt Otto on October 25, 2009 at 8:33 am

    I just started learning and using FCP, but I want to edit footage from a concert, which I recorded with two cameras from different angles.

    So, it would be great and easy, if I could play both camera angles simultaneously from the timeline to decide, which is best in each moment of the concert. Is that possible in FCP and how ? I can’t figure it out 🙁 Any help is much appreciated.

    Multiclip is probably the best way to go. Search on that and you’ll find the answers. Another way is to use the motion tab to scale each clip to 50% and move the clips side-by-side. After editing you then resize them full and move them center.

    Here’s a Cow tutorial on setting up clips for multiclip.
