My brain is fried because of the sheer amount of condensed but extremely valuable information you provided. I need to take a nap to recuperate but after I wake up, I'll start putting all this new knowledge to work! Thank you so much!
This is INVALUABLE! Thank you for going into so much detail. I just shot my first multi-cam yoga class in the forest and I didn't know ANYTHING about multicam 13 mins ago. Thank you so much, Dylan!
This tutorial is exceptionally well done. Laser-focused and incredibly helpful, especially for those who are editing Events with multiple cameras creating coverage. Loved the tip on blading an angle that may have some different timing from the monitoring angle, and using a Compound Clip to do your Picture in Picture effect was a nice little bonus. That Picture in Picture effect is soooooo helpful. One of my favorite Effects, and I use it almost daily. Great vid, Dylan!
I used to edit five and six angle Multi-Cams, some angles with cameras that start and stop, for a large corporation and the MC in Final Cut is the best! But, there's so much more that the Multi-Cam in Final Cut can do. - I cannot stress enough the power of using First Marker for Angle Synchronization. It'll speed up the sync of angles MUCH faster in that Final Cut will first look at the first marker because it's only a guide and then Final Cut will ONLY match the audio around the first marker to fine tune the alignment of the whole clip. FAR FAR faster than letting Final Cut examine audio of the whole timeline of each angle to find a match. It's night and day. To prove how well it works, set the first marker for each angle but don't be too careful. Be a frame or two or three off. When Final Cut sync's everything quickly, zoom in tight to the markers and you'll likely see them not perfectly aligned to each other. Instead Final Cut only used sound sync just in the small area around the first marker to ensure perfect sound sync for the whole clip. That, even though the markers weren't perfect. For extra credit, you only need to put the first marker on the first clip in angles where you have multiple clips. Because of embedded timecode, all the rest of the clips will be properly placed in sync away from the first clip (see next tip). Really, if your clips are long, you'll go from getting lunch to wait for sync, or be done with it within a minute or so. Amazing. - If you have a camera that starts and stops, then give all the clips the same camera name so that they will all be on the same angle timeline. Otherwise, they'll each have their own timeline and that'll drive you crazy! As said above, only the first clip in an angle with multiple clips will need the first marker. - Another benefit of First Marker is that you don't have to have sound. Use something visual to place First Marker. If later you see that the angle without sound is slightly out of sync, you can step into the MultiCam and select the no-audio angle and then use the period and comma keys to adjust the clip left and right until you see perfect sync. - The MC's I edited were usually in noisy rooms. When there were two or more people in the shot, I instructed the crew to put each voice on either it's own independent track, or on one side of a stereo track. I would change the the Stereo track to Dual Mono so I could isolate one voice while muting the other mic so to cut down on the room noise. One trick it used was to ... - ... duplicate the two person shot so that you had two angles with the same shot but one angle had only the guy on the left and the other angle had the guy on the right so that when I changed the angle using the Video and Audio mode from one guy to the other, the visual was unchanged but now you had the other mic on and the first mic muted. Talk about a fast way to edit sound! But, what if they talked over each other for a few words? ... - ... Remember that you can drop down the audio track away from the video and extend it across an angle change. For those few words where they talked over each other, both people will be heard but you'll reduce the room noise when the overlap ends. - It's not mentioned but you can can change the Monitoring Angle to be any angle that serves your purpose. I sometimes had to make a new angle, insert a clip, then make a change to my monitoring angle so that the added clip could better be sync'ed. - Did you know that while the MultiCam is opened so you can work on the angles, you can change which angle is visual and which angles are heard to help you make adjustments but those changes inside the MultiCam have nothing to do with how the main MC timeline (with the MC closed) is seen and heard? So, don't be afraid of messing things up with MC timeline you're editing. - I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting at the moment but this is a good start. Thank you Dylan! DonSmith.TV
This video has been invaluable to me. I used multicam combined with your PiP plugin to edit together a Skype interview, cutting between me, the guest, and a 2-shot while watching it in real time (like we do in live TV). Worked a treat. Thank you.
Oh that's a great way to do PIP. I usually drag and copy the multicam on top of itself and change the angle and resize it. Which means for every instance I need the PIP I have to do the same thing. It is not very time consuming using opt+cmd+c/v from the previous PIP I prepared but with your way I can simply create an angle with PIP and switch to that whenever it is needed. Perfection!
Agreed! Great use of a multi-cam clip… which opens the door to be used for so many things that require repetitiveness. Heck even titles or effects or anything that’s applied to the same clip. It’s like an active audition that will never be discarded.
Dylan is is one of the best multi cam tutorials I’ve seen. I learned multicam about 8 months ago but you taught me several new features I didn’t know about! I love the Picture in Picture idea! I’ll be using that in one of my next videos!!! Thank you!
This was exactly what I was looking for. A quick and easy guide to start using multicam. My use case is exactly the same as your example, a ballet performance on stage shot with multiple cams. Excellent and clear presentation of how to get started. Thank you!
Woo! Slightly above my editing pay grade at the moment but a most interesting tutorial and I will now go off and experiment with Multicam editing (you are an inspiration!). I learn so much from you videos. Thank you so very much.
You just keep getting better, smoother and pleasantly more informative . . . love your teaching style and appreciate your presentation format . . . Well Done, Dylan!
Thank you! This is so helpful! I’m a Pilates and yoga teacher doing all my own video editing (trying anyway! Lol). I’ve wanted to add music to some of my classes but I’ve struggled to figure out to have music and still hear me giving instructions. I think this will solve my problem!
Holly Guacamole, Damn! I use Multicam all the time. This was a great tutorial on so many things I didn't know I could do. I will have to watch it a few times because there was a ton of great info. Thank you
Thank you so much! You're a great teacher and producer - the look of your tutorials is so pro, bro! (But just to clarify - you can't really see us, can you?)
I didn't know about selecting two angles of audio, that's very helpful! I use the compound clip trick for screen recordings to add a version that has an iMac overlay on it to give some more interest when I do app demos.
Perfect Dylan, the FCBro is my preferred source of Final Cut Pro information. But can you you explain if there is a way to do Multicam cutting AFTER the clips have been timed right and placed on the timeline? It is a bit confusing how to handle this, once you got it all right and you need to start over with a Multicam clip instead of what you already got. I wish I could combine 2+ tracks on timeline and combine them and then select camera A or B back and forth for the entire length. Possible?
Let me preface this by saying I am just learning the Mac system and FCP in particular. I am coming over from a PC and Adobe CS6 which I have been using since 2005. I am really beginning to appreciate the MAC environment So, no offense Dylan, I just think that your presentation moved along too fast without any in depth explanation of the processes. By the time I reached 7 minutes I was so lost I just stopped watching. I am sure that someone with more experience with FCP than I currently possess would have no problem with your presentation but when I saw “Complete Guide” in your title I was expecting more fundamental instructional. However I am now motivated to obtain some basic information on this feature of FCP, roll up my sleeves, and apply good old trial and error to learn it. So in that vein your presentation was a success. Thank you.
Thank you for this! Working on a project currently and for some reason it wouldn't switch my HLG footage to Rec 709 once in Multicam. I already cut the interview with the A Cam and thought I was going to have to re-edit the interview but deleting and adding the angle fixes everything. I don't know if its a glitch but it seems to not want to do a color space override unless you change it prior to making a muticam sequence.
Hey Dylan, I just updated my FCP library to the newest version, and now my audio clips in my MC are greyed out and no audio is coming through. Any ideas?
Okay specific question for you. I culled down an entire interview with three camera angles. Is there a button that allows me to change all my camera angles at once after I culled it down? Mostly because i want to export camera angle 1, 2, & 3 with the sync audio for my client. And since the timeline isn’t one long clip because I culled it down to all the best takes they are all one camera 1. Normal process is just manually hitting option command left or right then shift to the next clip with the arrow keys until I change all the camera angles to the second and repeat the process to the third. But is there a way to change them all at once?
Dylan, how do I extract a multicam clip to the timeline? If I have a section where I need to use the stabilizer, for example, I can't apply it to a multicam clip, I would need to extract it. In the case of a compound clip I use command + shift + G, but I didn't find this same shortcut for the case of a multicam clip. Thank you in advance here in Brazil for your important help :)
As always amazing video. Quick question: What if you also have an audio track from an external device and the goal is to only use that audio (and none of the cam audio, aside from syncing)? Other tutorials online talk about having to first sync an external audio track with one of the cam clips before pulling everything into a multicam clip. Is that the solution or can the audio clip be one of the clips used to form the multicam clip, so that it's not specifically attached to one cam angle? I followed your tutorial and pulled in 3 cam angles and one master audio track and it sync'd everything. But when I disabled all of the cam audio, there was no sound at all. The audio clip is still enabled and plays on its own, but not as part of the multi-cam clip. I'm sure I'm missing a step. Hoping audio track can be added later, as there are occasions when editing will begin on a multicam project and the audio track comes later from the sound person.
Super Cool! I am about to launch a VODcast, which Multicam editing will come in clutch. I have three camera angles, and a podcast audio track. In this case, what's the easiest and most efficient way to merge my podcast audio track as the audio vs. the audio coming from my camera? I'm hoping to edit seamlessly with my keyboard with my merged, and intended audio.
Add the audio track as a separate lane in the multicam, set the audio track in your main timeline as the audio source, then switch to video cut mode only!
wish I had this a week ago :-( Brilliant job! Really gonna use this moving forward. Is there a limit to how many angles you can see in the viewer? I could only get 4 at a time with multiple pages. Thanks!
The limit for the multicam angle viewer window is 16 angles at a time (2,4,9 or16). However, you can cycle through the the banks of 16 at at time so that if you have, lets say 32 angles you can cycle through the first 16 in one bank and the next 16 in the other bank. I believe the maximum number of angles you can build in a FCP multicam sequence is 99 angles of video.
Hi Dylan, great videos, I have an issue with multi-cam editing, when I cut multi-cam file ( 3 videos ) I choose to cut only video, I get a tiny audio glitch at every cut, what I'm doing wrong, have tried everything I know, but no good results, thanks.
this is good, BUT my video drifts i do a 3 camera set up and aftrer about an hour of recording it drifts (all at the same 40Khz) is there a fix foir that?
Stellar tutorial! Question: how do you apply color correction across entire “track” inside multi cam when it’s sliced into 2 different clips? - instead of reiterating all your effects on each separated clip?
Select the clip with all of your effects, then press CMD + C to copy it. Then select the second clip you want to have all the effects, and press CMD + Shift + V which will paste attributes, and let you select which effects you want copied over!
@@TheFinalCutBro well I know that one! But thought there might be a way to keep it on one track instead of adding more third party plugins I use that add up on cpu eating. I guess compound clip it?
Hi Dylan. My fcpx can't handle multicam. I have 4 cameras and 4 video files from each of them. By copying your actions - fcpx - it creates a multicam with files from 4 cameras, but not synchronized. All files were moved on the timeline - as if one after the other and, of course, 4 cameras under each other. I don't know how to fix this problem - is it simply that fcpx can't cope with such a number of files? Do they have to be single files from each camera without cuts? Do I need to add one file from each camera? In my case, the multicam option does not work properly.
Figured it out. First, create a project, then with the project create a multi cam clip. you can then move between the original project and Multicam clip.
Hi Dylan, one question please. If I have an interview with 4 people miked individually, is there a way I can use multicam and, when needed, use two overlapping audio tracks (because the interviewees may speak at the same time)? Unfortunately it only lets me select one audio track at a time...😔
Yes! Click on the clip you want with two audio tracks, go to your audio inspector and scroll to the bottom. Down there you should see all of your audio tracks, which you can enable/disable as needed!

Yes absolutely! Just generate proxies like you would with any other clips, and they work seamlessly.
