Note:
Adobe Premiere Pro uses an overlay edit when synchronizing clips. Take care not to overwrite adjacent clips if you
have multiple clips on the same track.
1
Select the clips you want to synchronize.
2
Target a track (by clicking its track header) to align the other clips to it.
For example, if you synchronize clips on their Out point, the end of each clip aligns with the Out point of the targeted
track. A clip will be trimmed if synchronization causes its In point to fall before the sequence zero point.
Note:
If one track of a linked audio/video pair is unselected, the pair will become out of sync. Out-of-sync indicators will
appear on the clips.
3
Choose Clip > Synchronize, and then choose one of the following options:
Clip Start
Synchronizes clips at their In points.
Clip End
Synchronizes clips at their Out points.
Timecode
Synchronizes clips to the specified timecode. If you use the hours value in source timecode as a camera
designator, select the Ignore Hours option to use only minutes, seconds, and frames to synchronize clips.
Numbered Clip Marker
Synchronizes clips to the specified numbered clip marker. Choose the marker number to use
from the Marker pop-up menu.
You can also use the Synchronize command to sync several video clips on separate tracks or unlinked audio and video
tracks when you are not editing a multi-camera sequence.
To create a multi-camera target sequence
1
Choose File > New > Sequence.
2
Drag the sequence containing the multi-camera clips into a video track of the new sequence. (See “To nest a
sequence in another sequence” on page 149.)
3
Select the video and audio tracks in the nested sequence, and then choose Clip > Multi-Camera > Enable. The
command is unavailable unless you have the video track selected.
To record multi-camera edits
You record a multi-camera edit in the multi-camera target sequence you have already assembled. (See “To add clips
for multi-camera editing” on page 152.)
1
Select the multi-camera target sequence in the Timeline panel, and then choose Multi-Camera Monitor from the
Program Monitor panel menu.
2
In the Multi-Camera Monitor, click the Record On/Off Toggle button
.
Note:
You can also switch into record mode during playback by clicking a camera preview in the Multi-Camera Monitor.
3
To use the audio from track 1 regardless of which camera is active, make sure that Audio Follows Video is
deselected in the Multi-Camera Monitor panel menu. To change the audio track as you change the camera, select
Audio Follows Video.
4
Click the playback button in the Multi-Camera Monitor to start playing the video from all cameras.
The footage from the active camera is recorded in the multi-camera target sequence. A red border indicates the active
camera, and the large preview shows the content you are recording.
5
To switch to another camera and record its content, click its small preview in the Multi-Camera Monitor.
