I still have a question: How do you film this? How do you film this so the audio of the first clip (the clip of which you use the audio) is exactly sync with the other clips?

[TheConfessionMovie]

@Fraidification When you set up the Multiclip like I did in the tutorial, you can choose which video's audio track you want to stay with. Just make sure all the cameras are synched together so that they don't go out of sync.

why does this guy sound so GANGSTA?

[SILASbanduk]

@SILASbanduk Just to elaborate as I ran out of characters - Say you have 1 clip that is 31 minutes long, and another that is 30 minutes long; surely the one that is only 30 should start after 1 minute of the other has played through? Thanks for any help!

[SILASbanduk]

Hey guys, I'm having real difficulty getting all of my clips to sync with this... I've tried setting the in points, but the clips are all different lengths of course and instead of starting the longest one, and then bringing the others in at the times they start relative to the longest, it is starting them all at once and they are out of sync (I hope that makes sense!) One of the clips won't allow me to set an in point until after around 19 seconds and the others only after 00:00:08:00...help!

i got all kinds of RAM and astill it wont play smooth in the viewer..your tutorial was awesome and is gonna help me tremendously...but with only 8 cams of footage for a music video performance, i cant get it to play smooth enough in the viewer to edit on...i guess its my RAM??? I have shit tons of it though. i dont get it..:( Calling my Apple guy..:) any help? I'm correct right? RAM?

@fudgey15 re: not being able to select angles while playing back, I could not do it after rendering the time line. Try turning off the video on the time line and you will get a message about losing render files. Continue and then turn the video back on. See if that helps.

Add me in your Box 4 box and I can add you tonight. Message me back to let me know.
