If you have a lot of interview footage that was shot dual-system, it seems better to sync it all up first, before you start cutting. This means lining up your video and audio in a sequence.

Other than rendering out the newly sync’d footage and then cutting that, what should the workflow in Premiere Pro be?

In Final Cut you can create sub sequences. Although these are not exactly like subclips, in that you can not adjust the outer boundaries of the clip, they do at least let you log and comment all your interview questions.

How should this work in Premiere? Same question applies to multi-camera shoots.

Thanks,

I’m in the same boat. I have a piece of footage with a crash zoom, and I want to clone certain areas that eventually wind up off-screen.

So far, I can track the original footage to get the position and scale changes and apply the tracking data to a shape later. I set the anchor point of the shape later so that it lines up with the footage. I can then parent my layer with the clones to the shape layer, and the clones now reposition and scale correctly.

But what I’m not able to figure out is how to expression the clone position so that the clone source point travels to match the crash zoom.

Cheers,
