4
Drag the marked clip from the Source Monitor to the Project panel while
holding down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS).
5
When you drop the clip in the Project
panel, you will be prompted to give it a
name. Name this subclip
Race
. Notice
that subclips have a different icon than
master clips.
Now you will make a subclip from the
Timeline rather than the Source Monitor.
6
Drag the master clip multicam_01.mov to the Timeline in the Video 1 track.
7
Drag the right edge of the multicam_01.mov clip out to its full length.
8
Using the Selection tool ( ), drag the left edge of the clip to the right until you
see the bikers high-five each other in the Program Monitor. This will be the Hug
section of the clip.
9
Drag the shortened clip from the Timeline to the Project panel while holding
down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS).
10
When you drop the clip in the Project panel, you will be prompted to give it
a name. Call this subclip
Hug
.
Multicamera editing
The Adobe Premiere Pro multicamera editing feature is a tremendous time-saver
when you’re editing footage from a shoot or event captured with multiple cameras.
Say you have four clips that recorded the same bike race from four different camera
angles, but the four cameras started recording at different times. Your first task is
to find the same point in time for all four clips so they will be in sync.

Creating the initial multicamera sequence
The first step is to create a multicamera sequence from your captured footage:
1
Open Lesson 08-06.prproj.
2
Double-click multicam_01.mov to open it in the Source Monitor.
3
Move the Source Monitor current-time indicator to where the bikers high-five
after the race, which is at 00;00;16;16.
You will use the high five as a clapper slate to set the sync point on all four clips.
4
Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) in the Source Monitor time
ruler, and choose Set Clip Marker > Next Available Numbered.
This adds a little marker triangle behind the Source Monitor current-time
indicator (you’ll need to drag the current-time indicator out of the way to
see that marker).
5
Check that the Video 1 track header is targeted (highlighted). If not, click
it as needed to target the track, and move the current-time indicator to the
beginning of the sequence.

Note:
You can put
markers on clips or
sequences. You use
markers for a variety
of purposes, most
frequently to mark
DVD chapter points in
sequences. In this case,
you will have Adobe
Premiere Pro move
the four clips so the
markers you place on
their sync points all line
up vertically.
