Nesting the sequence into the presenters sequence will remove the need to export your edit and allows you to make edits on the fly.
Basically you have a sequence for the PIP (Picture In Picture) and that seq is added to the final seq (holding the edit of the presenter), then you can open the PIP seq and make changes when you need to.
Another option could be to apply the track matte to the presenter clip creating a hole for the PIP behind with a border over the top of the PIP hole.

Just so you know… the screens are only positioned vertically (tall) the input and signal is still horizontal (wide) the face that the monitor is turned means that you need to still working with a wide format that has the content on its side. know the correct side is key. Is the bottom of the screen really the right of the wide screen? or is it left?
So if you try to play a vertical video through a monitor like this it will show up as a skinny little video or not at all you expect it. test this monitor and it’s format capabilities.

in the multicam window you should have the option to select which audio you are using. AUdio track 1 should be the choice.
If you want you can then take the audio track clip that’s right and put it on another layer and just pull that out to full length and make the other track with the multi-cam cuts mute.

In order for PPro to import the mxf type files you need to have the entire folder structure of the original recording on the stick it was recorded on. It needs all the folders and all the little files inside those folders to import a complete video.audio with timecode and a thumbnail. the mxf file by itself can’t import without the rest of it.
You need to use the import function to select it too not just a drag and drop from Windows Explorer (PC) or Finder (Mac).

There is another option.
(I would consider the way you’ve mixed this audio using the track’s volume instead of the clips own volume is a learning curve).
As the audio is the thing you need to shift. Make a new seq with the same settings as the original timelines and name is so you know it’s the FINAL OUTPUT version. Add the edited/mixed sequence to the new timeline. Then open the edited/mixed sequence and grab all the video only and copy it. go back to the FINAL OUTPUT seq. and grab all the video only and delete it. Place the CTI (Playhead) back at the start of the timeline and paste the copied orginal rendered edit.
Now you should have a nested audio mix and the original rendered vision.
Then do and insert edit with the promo from the start of the timeline and all the renders should stick and the mix should sound right too.

Chad, FCP and PPro can acheive pretty much the exact same things, only they are different programs and use different codes to get things working. In PPro you will need to make a new title for each change. The way the PPro Title system works allows you to ‘update’ the original and all instances in the timeline will update immediately. Once you are aware of this system it’s far superior to the FCP one where every instance requires a single manual update.
Here’s how to work with the Titler in PPro for your uses:
1. Open the Title you want to use as your “template” look.
2. While the Titler is open goto the Menus on the top of the screen
– Title> New Title>Based on Current Title…
3. This has created a true copy of the original where you can make your text change and then use the replace function (right click the clip you have in the timeline and choose replace with clip>from bin).It may seem tedious but now you have the full control of ‘updating’ if you ever need to by finding the title in the Project panel and double clicking it and changing it knowing it will change in the timeline automatically instead of needing to find it and adjust it.
It’s a different way of doing things, and it has it’s advantages when using proxy setups (Lower third BGs especially).

I think for audio fades you’ll need to hit: Ctrl+Shift+D

Hi Lillian,
Only interpret media if you see the clip in the source monitor using the wrong Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR).
The cleanest fix is to get into the Preferences (Edit/Preference on PC) (Premiere Pro/Preferences on Mac) and in the General Settings make sure the “Default Scale to Frame Size” box is ticked. Now when you add a clip to the timeline it will use the “Scale to Frame Size” function and automatically scale the clip to fit the projects frame without losing the original PAR.
Any other clips you may have already in the timeline can be selected as part of a collective group and right click to pull up the “Scale to Frame Size” function to apply to all selected clips. Make sure you remove any Scale properties because it assumes the “Scale to Frame Size” is the new 100% Scale.

You can fill the shape you draw in titler. Make sure the shape is selected first, then in the properties look for the FILL option and select a colour.
