Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy Multiclip Editing Feature

  • Multiclip Editing Feature

    Posted by Chip Hess on May 20, 2008 at 5:37 pm

    I am working at a client’s with 3 camera shoot material, all synched TC.
    It’s a mock newscast, so cutting back and forth using multiclip would be really nice. They have latest flavor of FCP 6.
    I don’t have this version at home, so obviously no luck using Help or manual to pick it up.

    There used to be a video clip up on Apple website when this was first introduced, I think it was FCP 5 …? It gave basics pretty clearly. Anybody know of a quick tutorial online – Apple or elsewhere – to run me through a crash course?

    Thanks!

    You have the Manual…it is in your HELP menu…launches as a PDF file. Look in the section on MULTICLIPPING.

    Larry Jordan on Lynda.com has a great tutorial, you can go right the chapter on multicam and do screen caps to save as a reference. Well worth the $25/month.

    Well,

    Unfortunately this is a time issue, I had hoped to get a look today but am not onsite. So no access to manual – 🙁

    Ken Stone has a decent primer. That’s what got me started, and I’m 3/4 done with a four camera edit. I’m amazed that everything’s working as advertised. (Knock on wood.)

    Hey Chip,

    Finishing cutting a feature now with multiclips. One thing to be aware of with multiclips: no subcliping, no markers. Just a good thing to be aware of before you get too far down the line. Other than that it’s been a great experience.
