About the multi-camera editing workflow
Adobe® Premiere® Pro lets you create a multi-camera source sequence using clips from multiple camera sources. You can synchronize clips by
manually setting In points, Out points, or clip markers. Or you can use audio-based syncing to accurately align clips in a multi-camera sequence.
The Multi-Camera mode in the Program Monitor lets you edit clips shot on multiple cameras from different angles. To display the multi-camera
editing interface inside the Program Monitor, select Multi-Camera from the pop-up menu in the Program Monitor. The Program monitor's Multi-
Camera mode displays a fully composited output like the regular playback mode, displaying any applied effects during playback.
Multi-camera editing workflow
1. Create a project
Click New Project from the Premiere Pro Welcome screen, or select File > New Project.
In the New Project dialog box, enter a name for the project, and click OK to accept the defaults.
2. Import footage
Select File > Import. In the Import dialog box that appears, navigate to the directory containing your video and audio files. Select the files to import,
and click Open.
To select a range of files all at once, click the first file and Shift-click the last file while selecting all the files in between.
3. Create a multi-camera source sequence
You can create a multicam source sequence in the following ways:
Select a bin containing assets and choose a sync method from the Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence dialog. All clips in the bin are
processed based on the sync method and ordered alpha-numerically in each resulting source sequence.
Select assets manually and choose a sync method from the Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence dialog. The order in which you selected
the clips determines the order in the resulting source sequence.
To use the Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence dialog, select your clips or bin from the Project panel. Then, right-click (Win) or Ctrl-click (Mac)
the selected clips and select Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence from the context menu.
