![]() This led me to revisit this audio issue, as I wanted to nail down a workflow before we start cutting. Recently I switched back to Premiere to prep for a feature length documentary that's in it's early stages. I wanted to see for myself if this is true (spoiler alert: it's not). Additionally, I’ve been told that Merged Clips in Premiere do not retain proper audio metadata. Personally, I have some issues with using Multi-Camera workflow, but I’d like to be convinced otherwise (that’s a topic for another post). Many users have abandoned this command altogether, opting instead for the “Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence” workflow outlined by Jarle Leirpoll here: My multicam sources won't have cuts in them, and I'd use a separate source for each interview/session.Further complicating the issue are the well documented shortcomings of the “Merge Clip” tool in Premiere. When you drop the multicam source sequence in the source monitor panel the sequence markers will show up as clip markers - showing start points for each synced clip in the sequence.Īll that said, that workflow just doesn't come up for me. If you are going to sync a bunch of different clips in one sequence to use as a single multicam source, I'd leave about 1sec heads and tails on each synced clip, then bars&tone or some other sound/image marker between synced clips selections, then manually add a sequence marker at the beginning of each clip. It's simple to add a marker to a visual cue frame, then sync markers on the timeline.Īudio syncing works just dandy when all the clips have a viable waveform. Other than timecode, the best syncing option is a visual cue, like clapboard, eye blinking, camera flash, or flipping the lights on/off. So you should only have to sync once per interview/session. Yeah, camera cuts are no problem, Premiere handles gaps with far more grace than other NLEs.Ī main concept of shooting multiple cameras is keeping the cameras rolling. Nevermind, I was thinking different narrative takes. then you're against a pre-recorded track and both issues are eliminated. The only bummer is that multicam can get a little messy with audio or the variable length of different takes. ![]() Of course, since timecode and take length is different, this pretty much removes the ability to automatically create multicam sequences unless you use in-point instead but this is for every NLE. More flexible than Avid or FCP7 (dunno how flexible FCPX is, only used it on one multicam show). Premiere is great for this because it allows for gaps in the timeline, multiple clips in the same track, and variable amounts of video/camera tracks. In other words, just keep doing what you're doing. Any timeline can be converted to Multicam. In Premiere just create a timeline and place your takes in the different video layers, organize to your liking. Looking for something more local?
