Hey all,
So as I am trying to do some sports videography, one of the needs is to be able to separate individual players "moments" in a game. So in my case, soccer.. there are 11 players on the field. What I need is a way to play the video and quickly be able to mark in/out points for small clips of individual players. Each game is a bit over an hour. Currently, what I have to do is scrub the video, when I find a bit that has a player I want to create a clip of, I have to stop the scrub, mark the in, then scrub to the out, mark the out, then drag/drop that to another track for that specific player. Eventually, the goal is to break down all 11 players into 11 tracks (1 for each). This process, for 1 player is a time sink. For 11, it is just way too long.
So, what would be great is if there was a way to map a key on the keyboard like a toggle, to start the in point and then stop.. and have that in/out automatically moved to another track. The track should contain all the in/out clips that the one key is mapped to.. so I could set up a key for a specific player, and thus get all their bits on to one track.
Is there any way to do this? OR if not.. is there a plugin that may make this work?
If not, any suggestions on how to speed this process up?
