Editing Concert in FCP

[wolfwood87]

Are there any guides or anything like that to learn to edit a multi-cam concert on the web, on video, in a book, or anything like that? Any tips put in this thread would help as well.

Thanks,

Just use several video tracks from the different cameras, switching to the appropriate one when desired, and a single audio track. This is covered in the manual.

maybe look through the creativecow.net tutorials or check out one of the apple certified training manuals at a book store to see if any of them have info.

somethings to check, how many cameras? were all cameras feed the same timecode? if so that's a major plus, or do you have to sync them up by hand, major downer, cause can be time consuming. i'm not sure if fcp has a multicamera edit mode or not, cause have never done it in there, but if it's similar to avids multi cam set up that's very cool too.

if its not set up, just have each camera on its own track and line them up so there are in sync and then just go through turning each camera on/off to see what cam you like best.
