  • Clip all Multicam angles together in a “contact print” like video?

    Posted by Bent Ronne on September 6, 2015 at 11:43 am

    Hi

    I have to make a draft video from a recent interview I have made, into one single video. I would like to show the interviewee all angles at the same time, so he can decide which angle to select for the finale clip.

    Do you have any idea how I can do this with the Multicam feature in FCPX?

    Dupe the multicam above itself as many times as you have angles. Choose a different angle for each instance. Scales and position each to taste. Rinse and repeat.

    Yep it’d be lovely if you could just select all angles as an “angle” for this precise thing. But then again it’s quite challenging to watch that way outside of FCPX anyways. So not sure it has a great use case.

    You might also want to burn timecode over the whole thing so they can tell you which angle at what timecode.

    If your computer is playing them all back ok you might do a screen recording.

    Thanks for all the answers – it seems to work fine by dupe it over itself. However, I have to be extra accurate with the alignment of the first frame otherwise I miss the synchronization.

    The idea with the timecode is also usable, thanks.

    Yep- that would be my suggestion. Saves time and match should be 100% accurate.
