Mission Accomplished


If you had been using an earlier version of Premiere Pro, then this project would likely have been many pages longer. It's a great testament to the developers at Adobe that this project is as short as it is. There is, of course, much more to multi-camera concept, but the workflow listed in this project will get you up and running on the majority of the multi-camera projects.

The techniques you have learned here are valuable enough, but you probably won't really experience multi-camera work until you have created your own. Try to do this on a simple project first; something short and easy to edit. In this project, creating a sync point was fairly easy, because the material you were supplied with was set up to be simple to work with. On real-life multi-camera shoots, you may find this is not the case.
