  • Slowing Down in Multicam

    Posted by Kevin on November 29, 2005 at 12:52 am

    Hi list,

    I am slowing down subclips to 25% and then multiclipping them. Everything works great, but the multiclip only sees 15 minutes or a quarter of the media i.e. I only get 15 minuts of media in the multicam viewer. Looks like the quarter time slowdown confuses FCP.

    I tried slowing down each tape in a sequence and then went to multiclip that but you can’t multiclip sequences apparently. The only workaround now is exporting media slowed and rendered to 25% and then reimporting and then muticlipping but the time involved in doing that would wash the benefit off cutting multicam.

    I’d love to hear any feedback if anyone has travelled down this road.

    Hi Chris,

    Many thanks for posting back. If I slow the master clip to say 50%, then only half the media will appear in the viewer. I’m trying to figure out a way to slow master clips and have still run their full lenght, not be shortened to the extent that I’m applying the speed change.

    So far the only thing I can think of is to export the master clips at the slowed down speed, then re-import, but that would take days so I’m hoping there’s a setting that I’m not seeing.

    Again many thanks,

    Kevin
