I've view a lot of videos on how to edit multicam but this one is the most understandable so simple ❤ thanks brother
Heck yeah! Thanks for letting me know! I try to make my video on how I would like someone to teach me. Glad it helped man!
This is my favorite style of tutorials. To the point of what is promised in the title. Easy to follow, not too slow and not too fast. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for that Micha!
@@CameraToFreedom Thank you. Did a first multicam setup today. Thought that there was simple way to edit this (with my basic knowledge) and then came along this tutorial. And I was on my way within 10 minutes. How great is that.
Yes! So glad I can help. Thanks for letting me know Micha!
Wow, how easy!! No one explains it so reduced and clear like You - You made my day. Thank You from Germany!
So cool you enjoyed the video Martin! Thanks for the comment!
Love it. Thank you for making it easy for us to learn. Looking forward to more of your tutorials.
Glad to be os service. More tutorials coming soon!
Makes it so much more simple, thanks so much for sharing, subbed!! :)
Thanks for the sun and the comment Kevin!
Dude! Myong Hong is the man! Thanks for this super educational and cool explanation. I'm just beginning a doc with many cameras. Thank you!
I’m so glad I can help. Thank you so much for the comment AC!

thank u for helping me out :)
You welcome Josephine! Anytime leave a comment with question and I’ll try to give you some pointers!
Great, Thank you
Thanks for the comment Dhruv!
Excellent.
Thanks Tom!
Great video.
Thank you Tori for the comment!
Bro, you nailed it. I like your style of teaching. You have patience, and you take your time as if someone is really following you. I don't subscribe to tutorials like this, but I am so grateful and appreciative and can't say I wouldn't subscribe. You won my respect. You are the best. Keep it up. 💯
Thank you Opusco! Glad it helped you a bit! More to come!
Actually there is a tremendous amount left out in this process! Too much to even list here.
Great tutorial @Myong Hong! Question for you. . . . if you wanted to add effects to a video like the one in your tutorial (perhaps an intro slide, an ending slide, some essential graphics that had the names of those in the wedding party, etc.), would you suggest doing that as you go? Or, would you suggest editing a copy of your exported video and edit THAT?
Yes add those effects right on top of the multi lip edit. Wont be a problem and you’ll just end up spending more time doing the export edit you’re talking about.
Lets say you want to cut your multicam edit and put a seperate slow motion video in between. Can I just cut the nested multicam sequence, insert the slomo video, then continue using the multicam?
Yes you can! You can put anything on that multicam timeline and it won’t effect the multicam edit! You can even color on it, adjust the original audio and the multicam audio, ect
Thank you so much for this tutorial, it helped a ton! I ran into an issue though. I have everything set up as you do, but when I click on a different camera to change, the whole nested sequence switches to a different camera to stay on for the entire recording, rather than making cuts like yours. I'm not sure why or what to do...
Hmm, check to make sure you have the main ‘arrow’ selection tool selected when you’re clicking on the little monitors. Sometimes, I would accidentally have some other selection tool selected like the little razor tool and would try to click on the little monitor and nothing happens. It’s something that simple. Did that make sense and did it work now?
I didn't understand "Option delete" What is that? Otherwise very good tutorial for a newbie. I'm transitioning from Vegas to Adobe and do a lot of multi camera stuff. This is going to be incredible!
Glad you were able to learn some tricks here. Lol option delete is so hard to explain with just writing. You have to see it in the video or actually push the buttons yourself to see. Lol
Nice
Thanks MadBoy!!!
NIce !
Thank you Spiv!
Hi Myong. Have you ever edited a narrative short or feature, and if so, does this method work when you're dealing with multiple camera angles AND multiple takes. For example, in your multi-cam window, can you have: 3 camera angles from take 1; 3 camera angels from take 2; 3 camera angles from take 3 and so on, then just click through them to edit it together, mixing different takes? And of course the audio from each take has to be synced to each camera angle take before starting the multi-camera edit.....
Yes! The clever thing is that if you have all 3 camera angles, with multiple takes, in one folder and let premiere creat a multi clip, it will create multiple ‘files’ that groups the 3 cameras together. If there are extra clips that the third camera didn’t listen and kept getting bunch of little shots when you told everyone to cut but they don’t listen, it’ll simply kick that clip out because it doesn’t have other clips to join. The used clips going to ‘processed clips’ folder.
Actually a very helpful tutorial, thank you! Can I ask, if you use a Mac, what drew you to Premiere and not Final Cut?
I use a lot of photoshop for my photo and graphic arts and after effects for special effects for video, that’s Adobe as well. All their softwares work together seamlessly so it made sense to switch over. I did start with final cut long time ago.
Thank you! Will try to save up . Thanks Sir! We were at San Diego last week. Totally forgot to tell you
Having a challenge...a 3-camera shoot where one camera was 4k and the other 2 are 1080, so in the multicam, one needs to be resized (scale to frame size) but I don't see how to do that in the 3-camera grid as I get ready to switch in the sequence. Sorry if that's confusing...basically I'm wondering how/where to size the clip properly.
Also, one of the cameras didn't have clear audio so the sync of the clips is off. How do I manually set the sync point so all 3 match?
I mention in the video that you write click, the already made multicam project window and open in timeline but I didn’t go into that detail. After you open that in timeline, you will see all the video files and audio files synced up and that is where are you scale up the HD video, sync up the videos, select the video that you want to use, color, your clips, and all the editing is done on that window. Hopefully you find it and you can see what’s going on.
@@CameraToFreedom I appreciate the quick response...unfortunately, that flow isn't what's happening for me. Might be a glitch because it insists on completely ignoring one of the cameras when I create the multicam. Wish I could send you a screen cap vid to make it all clear. I ended up wasting lots of time with an old fashioned workaround just to get it finished. Thanks for trying to help.
Can you use the slide tool to change the sequence points? I don't seem to be able to view this in any tutorials that I've seen. Thank You.
The slip and slide tool is very cool. I wouldn’t recommend these tools for multicam edit since it effects the real time of editing multicam but it’s amazing for when you make a short movie or a commercial or anything else. Since the slip tool will easily allow you to change the in and out point of your clip in your timeline without having to move around clips. This is difficult to explain without showing it to you in a video. Just don’t need to use it for multicam edit.
Thanks for this. What if I want to adjust the colors on one of the cameras to match up the other. How do I do that seamlessly ?
You open the timeline that has all the clips, that’s where you color each of the clips and fix any audio issue. Then on the multicam timeline with one one green clip in it is where you can apply the final LUT or audio effects that will apply it to every clips. Hopefully that made sense
@@CameraToFreedom will try this👍. Thank you. I think you should add it to the list of videos to create though. As a follow up to this😁
You’re right! Advanced editing of multicam. Thanks for that note!
What is the best way to color grade before the Multicam?
I might’ve explained it in the video. Right after you create the multicam, you can right click on the project window is the multicam created and click on ‘open in timeline’. This will show you all the videos and audio that’s been synchronized in one timeline. Color correct and fix audio in this window and it will reflect on the multicam window.
yo fam ... how does the system decide which audio to take .. for example i recorded 2 camera angles both with audio and the audio separate
Right after you create the multi cam in the project window, you will see that he created a video file. Right click on that video file and select open in timeline. In that timeline you will see all the video synced up together and all the audio and that is where you select which audio to use or combine or color correct and so on. Let me know if that made sense and if you got it
What is your workflow for utilizing multiple camera angles at the same time? I've tried duplicating my multicam clip and adding it to the next video track, but I always seem to run into issues when trying to change my angle. Any info you have would be great! Thank you.
Michael I’m not sure of what you’re asking. Are you asking how to edit multiple camera angles at the same time? This video shows you exactly how to do that. So let me know what you’re talking about specifically
@@CameraToFreedom I'm trying to find the best way to do picture in picture with the multicam sequence
You have to manually add the picture on top of the multicam strip to make that happen. If that made sense.
Thanks for this Informative video... But how to remove unwanted parts from the video...
Open the timeline with all the footages and delete it from there. You can even cut from the timeline with one long clip where you do the cut edit.
I have a question:
Let's say you're working on a story utilizing many angles (12 or more including drone shots)...after you go through the live view editing process for multi-cam, what's the procedure to color correct afterwards, once you've adjusted or clicked each cam angle accordingly. What's the process after this? before exporting, for color correction? then taking the main timeline export, and reintroducing the color corrected timeline back into possibly a new project to add the b roll and fill in clips? I was told you could color correct afterwards, and add adjustment layer per each clip to get a LUT style you're going for with the overall timeline...but where do you pick up from there? Can you start adding clips and tracks on top of the Multi-cam edited Sequence you just did?.. or do you have to export then bring the multi-cam export back in the timeline to add the filler content?
I could not find much online about the whole process after the live view. Your thoughts or opinions would be much appreciated. Thank you
So much question in this comment but I’ll try to answer as much as I can understand you. You right click on your video file inside your project window that was created after you selected ‘create multicam’, after you right click on it, select ‘edit in timeline’. This will put all your videos in another timeline and you’ll be able to see all you video files laying on top of each other synced to the audio. You color correct that. If you want you can just color correct on the one timeline file it created. You also can put video files on top of the one multicam timeline file. It’s so much easier to show you then to explain to you.
@@CameraToFreedom thank you for commenting back. Especially so quickly. Wish there was an easy way you could show me, or I could show you. I think I answered part of the question through trial and error, but it's taking more time than I wonder if it would take just doing it old fashioned. But I am wondering if you have about 12 angles, and need audio sync, afterwards can you start manipulating the clips and dropping filler content and b roll on tracks above the MC sequence? And also archival footage to be place above or in between, or does that mess up any future scenarios of being able to re-edit the multicam live view? Because I found out that you can color correct each clip from the processed sequence and it translates to the MC sequence, but the second you move a clip out of audio sync it seems like it would throw off the whole timeline if you chose to change some multi cam edits...is it best to edit the MC, then color correct those clips, then add the extra footage on top of the MC sequence? Or am I messing up the timeline if I start dropping clips in the MC sequence that arent part of the 12 angles? Because theres a lot more filler footage that need to be done and transitions, effects, etc. I dont want to start time remapping and adding transitions to the MC sequence if itll mess up the original cuts, or throw everything off balance. Hopefully what I'm saying makes sense. I'm just trying to find the most organized and efficient way of doing this. Thank you again for your response. Any additional help would be much appreciate
How do I do this if I have 3 cameras but each camera has 6ish clips? I continuously record on my camera but when it’s finished the camera has split the video into seperate clips.
I do a lot of multicam editing with gopros, which also breaks the clips up into separate 10 minute long videos. What I usually do is put them all on my timeline in order, highlight all of the clips, right click and create a nested clip. You can do this with all of your camera angles and then create your multicam clip. Maybe Myong has a better work around for this. Best of luck!
Premier knows that many cameras will have multiple clips split like that so you just highlight every clip, in the project window, then right click on it then do the multiclip. Premier will just take care of it and it knows exactly what to do with it . Let me know if that made sense
Thank you Michael for stepping in. That’s a clever way of doing it to
Good tutorial. Question. Why did you have us both create a new SEQ from clip AND open the Multicam clip in timeline? When I do I can see both cams sync-ed and stacked but why did I want to do both those things? Isn't just creating a new SEQ from the Multicam clip enough? why also open the Multicam clip in timeline?
You open up the multicam so you can color correct each camera. Then it automatically if reflected in the sequence. You will also need to select the correct audio in the multicam timeline because sometimes it picks the wrong audio to be the primary. Hopefully that made sense.
@@CameraToFreedom BOOM there ya go. Gracias.
is there a way to assign custom buttons or keys to the diff cameras instead of using the mouse to click on the diff scenes to make a cut?
Ooh that’s a great question and would make the editing even easier!
@@CameraToFreedom apparently it defaults to the numbers 1 keys on your keyboard. It corresponds to how you have it arranged in the multicam view from left to right.
But unfortunately ive already used my number keys to something else and cant figure out what its described as in the shortcuts menu to re-assign it. Lol
Ooh that’s a cool trick to know! Thanks for sharing that!
I don't know what you did to even have the option for finder because mine does not have that
What do you mean by ‘option for finder’? I’ll help.
If the clips are shooted in different sizes (one in HD, the other in 4k), how can you create the output in HD?
If you import both into a HD timeline, then you need to scale down the 4K video to ‘scale to fit’. If you’re editing in 4K timeline, then Ofcourse you can scale up the HD video to fit. When you export you can select either HD or 4K. You can edit in HD and export as 4K as well and vice versa. Did that make sense?
is there any way to toggle between two cameras automatically every 3 seconds?
There isn’t a setting to let you do that but there is a trick to do that. You open the multicam in time line so you see all the camera footages. You then create an adjustment layer then bring it onto the timeline. You make that adjustment later into 3 seconds long. You copy that adjustment layer and move it over to the next 3 second. Copy both then paste, copy 4 then paste, copy 8 then paste and so on. Very soon you’ll have bunch of adjustment layers on top that looks like bunch of teeth. You highlight all the adjustment layer then you bring it down to one of the video clip. This will chomp off all the 3 seconds by 3 seconds off. There you have it. Hopefully that made sense.
Is that potter music in the background? XD
Hmm that’s a possibility! I love all the Harry Potter movies!
I didn't see how you activated the cameras. I have only one camera show but I used multiple cameras. I can't see my timeliness like yours.
What do you see in your timeline?
im not sure what step im missing, i select the clip again to create a new sequence in timeline, and nothing happens. no duplication and no multi cam or dark outlined windows appeared, not sure if my project settings are different or what
What clip are you selecting again? You said again. Did something happen the first time you did it and what was it? Was it ‘open in timeline’? And that did work? But create a new sequence didn’t work? When something strange like that happens, you usually have to make sure you’re version is updated or downgrade. Once in a while a bug will occur when something normal like that shouldn’t happen. Try that first.
@@CameraToFreedom this is my other account, I meant “ again”like how you select to create multi clip sequence and then go back and select it to do new sequence in timeline (I think is the order you explained) both times I make those selections it will either duplicate the screen or show all black, I did run into another issues with an error to match (for video to audio) and bypassed it by unlinking audio from video. But then nothing visual would play strangely even with audio not selected or even removed. I have a capable computer, I’ll try the downgrade or upgrade version today and get back with you! Thanks
One reason why you would get black screen is because you have a long audio file you are syncing with and the video finally comes on in the middle of that. When you scrub through the newly create timeline with the created multi clip, you have to scrub to the middle of the timeline to finally find the video when the video finally starts. If that made sense. Scrub through and see if you video finally comes on in the middle. You can see a thin yellow bar on the top of the timeline that shows where the video is appearing.
why not show any of the editing?
You’re the first one to ask. Next time I will. :)
@@CameraToFreedom kk fair enough ☺️
Excellent.
Appreciate the second comment :)
