yes…
in essence you can do base global cc to the clips inside the multicam source sequence. this will propagate out to the multicam edit.
then you can do shot specific fixes in the multicam edit.

Adobe CS3 and CS4 are probably last good versions for XP.
these were sufficient for DV, HDV and some flavors of P2 MXF.
I think you will have a hard time with any newer codecs…so you may have to do some transcoding to work with newer material.

If you really like to grade entirely in AE….
you can literally import your PPro Project into AE.
I mistakenly said in the previous post that there would be layers in your AE comp to indicate where dissolves go…
this is true when you IMPORT but not when you dynamic link.
sorry about that….

Unfortunately, no…
relinking to a media set with different media durations will not simply match by the timecode…
you could import the second set and “replace” events on the timeline with your shortened events…
but don’t relink you media set to the new media…
take a look at this:

hope this sheds some light…

Yes….
the multi-cam edit is just a window thru to the nested sequence…
you can even do whole sale swaps of track content in the source and the changes are reflected in the edit….

Hey Michael…
just add the additional clip to the multi-camera setup timeline
the additional track will automatically be recognized the multi-cam viewer.
easy as pie…

Hi…
Dynamic link really wasn’t intended to move your entire sequence to AE.
It was really meant as away to send individual shots over(sub groupings of related clips)…make changes in AE…and see the changes in the context of the edit.
sets are clips that are sent over are replaced with after effects “composition.”
So….since you sent over the entire timeline…
Basically…you now have 1 BIG comp in PPro project.
since you have done it it this way….and you are kind of “committed” at this point….
dissolves can be recreated in AE via opacity keyframes….and there should be some layers in AE that indicate where those should fall.
You can render out of AE to a new file
or you can “render and replace” PPro.
I don’t think having 1 huge clip dynamically linked will be of any really bidirectional benefit myself…
so I’d probably just finish and render out of after effects if it was me….

ok.
sorry I misunderstood about the changes happening within each clip.
So….you want to dynamically adjust the gamma based on sample of an area….
hmmmm…
Auto color, auto levels, or auto contrast may be a direction to go…
anything thru scripting and analysis is probably much better handled with After Effects….I don’t thin PPro is robust in this area.
how are your images compressed?
is it the blue you are concerned with?
you might achieve the result you want by keying out the blue
and then layering over a consistent blue background…that would negate the changes you are seeing….it’s a stretch….but maybe….
or….
if the changes are abrupt….
split the clips, move all those that match on to their own video track in same time sync as original (in other words leave gaps)
then nest that track…
inside that nest….you can add an adjustment layer containing your correction and it will aply to all the clips there…
this correction will be seen in the parent timeline…
if necessary, do the same with the other set….
so you parent timeline will end up with two nested tracks, each one corrected to make them match….
there are some approaches…
hope that helps…

Hi Natalie…
if you load each of the clips into your source viewer one at a time…
then from the effects panel…
add you color correction necessary to make them consistent….
they will then have those effects applied through out the timeline…
and if you adjust then again by loading them into the source…then all instances in the sequence will update to reflect that change…
this is called adding master effects and some people refer to it as source side effects…
anyway…this should do the trick…
no SDK or scripting needed….

Hi Michael…
you are sort of answering your own question…
just change the tracks back to clip keyframes….
you won’t see the curves for the track…but they are still there…
also….they won’t ripple…
but this will essentially unlock the tracks so you can edit and move the events as normal.
you’ll probably just end up with some track keyframes that will have to be adjusted after the fact.
flow wise….I try to to save track level mixing until pretty late in the process…sometimes it is unavoidable though…
hth,
