So this is the kind of workflow I’m planning:

( I have around 300 video clips and audio clips )

1)Browse through all video footage and identify the ones that I think are good/can be used/may be used and rename those clips according to Slate no/Take no.

2) Browse through audio files to find corresponding audio to above selected video files by listening to the Slate no/Take no and similarly rename only those files by their Slate/Take no

3) Now I have all my video files that I want to use/might use AND I have all their corresponding audio files that need to be synced.

4) Syncing :
I’ll import the selected audio and video files into Premiere Pro in separate bins.

The question at this point is :
1) Can I only sync ONE Audio-Video pair at a time ? So say I have selected 100 video& audio clips , so I’ll have to do the merge by audio function 100 times ?

2) Is there any way I can BATCH-process the sync ? Or is Plural Eyes the only way to do that ?

Thanks!

Thanks for all the suggestions !

So one final question..

Say I do the rough-edit using only the scratch audio and I have my picture locked..

Now I finally want to sync the audio to this edited sequence on my timeline.

Which is the best way to do this ?

Since the clips on the timeline already have their slate/clap sounds removed and I/O points marked ..how do I sync the original audio files to these ?

Do I again have to go through each of the 100 audio files individually to see which ones I need for to be on my timeline ? A bit confused..

Thanks.

This sounds good.

How does PluralEyes work ?

Ok this might be a silly question but..anyway

Suppose I have 100 audio files and 100 video clips – and I want to sync each of the video with the corresponding audio I just put them all in the software ? How do we tell the software which audio clip is supposed to fit to which video clip ?

May 17, 2014 at 4:53 pm in reply to: Using Avid for 1st time ,after having used only PPro ! – So many problems !

Just some stock footage I downloaded.
I don’t have Quicktime player installed on my laptop. Does that have anything to do with importing ?

Or should I try transcoding the files to Dnxhd and importing ?

Which software do I use to transcode?

May 9, 2014 at 10:09 pm in reply to: Best NLE for correcting audio/noise reduction ? ?

Thanks Chris ! You mean export as an AIFF/OMF file and then work on it using audition ?

Is that what you normally do ?

How about just trying to adjust the volume levels manually in Premiere Pro -bringing it down where there is noise in the background and increasing where there are dialogues spoken

May 6, 2014 at 6:42 pm in reply to: Multi-Format Editing – Which Format to Transcode too?

Why don’t you wanna edit them directly since PPro supports all these native formats ?

You can save time transcoding,and yet deliver a high quality product.

Thanks Kevin ,That’s true I’m aware that it’s not so easy to get a sponsor.

Perhaps ,I could start off as a Production assistant or something like that ? Sponsors for those roles could be relatively easier to obtain ?
