The first step to multicam edits is to import your media and prepare them for your project. You can give the camcorder or recording device a name and use the Camera Name tag to sort the source clips to make multicam editing more organized. In this video, we'll take a look at how to do this.
After importing your media for a multicam edit, the next step is to create the multicam clip. Creating multicam clips is similar to creating auditions and compound clips in the browser. In this video, we'll take a look at how to create a multicam clip and also how to adjust its available settings.
After you create a multicam clip, you can watch all angles simultaneously in the angle viewer while switching or cutting to different angles in real time. This allows you to cut an entire movie as if it were live, and then fine-tune your edits in the timeline just as you would for any other project.
When working with multicam clips, you can open them in the angle editor to adjust the sync and angle order. You can also edit the individual clips, similar to how you would in a compound clip. We'll take a look at the basics of how to open and adjust your multicam clips.
Multicam clips generally function just like standard clips in the timeline. You can add video and audio effects, transitions, and so on. You can also switch multicam clip angles directly in the timeline or inspector without having to open the angle viewer. In this video, we'll take a look at how to perform some basic edits with your multicam clips.
You can import 360° videos the same way you import any other media in Final Cut Pro. But, for proper playback and editing, you need to make sure that your 360° media is formatted correctly. We'll show you how!
To take full advantage of the 360° video capabilities of Final Cut Pro, you must edit 360° clips in a project whose format is set to 360° video. Final Cut Pro sets project properties based on the properties of the first clip you add to the project, so you can create a 360° project by adding a 360° clip to a new, empty project. You can also set 360° project properties manually.
For proper 360° playback and editing, you need to open use the 360° Viewer in Final Cut Pro. This viewer gives you a good representation of what your viewers will see when watching your finished 360° videos. In this video, we'll take a look at how to edit your clips using the 360° viewer.
Do you want to spice up your 360° projects? Final Cut Pro includes titles and generators that are specially designed for 360° projects. In this video, we'll show you how to add and edit 360° titles and effects.
Once you've finished editing your 360° projects, you can export it like you would a normal project. But keep in mind, you'll need a 360° compatible player to view the projects properly. In this video, we'll take a look at some options you can use when sharing your 360° projects.
