    Hi guys,

    I have a question about multicamming in Premiere Pro CC:

    We have shot an event with 4 different camera’s and I want to use the multicam function to edit this. I have just seen several tutorials, and everywhere they say that you have to mark the clips by opening them from the project window, then put them in one bin and select them so you can create the multicam sequence.

    My problem is:

    Someone already did the tough job and put all the clips sync, but he did this by putting them all in a sequence in layers above eachother. Is there anyway to import this to a multicam sequence without having to find al the clips first, put them in a bin, marking them and create the multicam sequence?

    Hope someone can help me with this!

    Cheers,

    Daniel

    You can use markers for syncing up your mulitcam clip. Simply put the CTI over the clips in the timeline, put a clip marker on each clip by selecting the clip individually. You may need to go into Keyboard layout to assign a key for “Clip Marker” (rather than timeline marker). Then select marker as your sync point when creating the mulitcam clip.
    Good luck,
    Bob

    Select all the video clips and nest them. Then enable this nested clip for multicam. At this point I usually make a new timeline from this timeline and cut the multicam there.
