How does one go about setting up a three camera angle project for a live perfromance video? Specifically, I'd like to know the 'standard' way to apply the three video captures to the Timeline and then the stereo audio track. I have imported all the media, which consists of the following:
V1: Static camera on the entire stage.
V2: Roaming camera 1
V3: Roaming camera 2
A1: Stereo mix
I've fussed around with pulling in the various parts, but Sudio seems to behave erratically. I paste in one video track, fine, then when I pull in another video track, it won't paste where I assume it should go, which is an adjacent video track (instead it pastes two lines below for some reason). Finally, I managed to get all video tracks pasted in adjacent to one another (just by trial and error, repeating the same drag and drop) but now I have lost the audio to the video and only the stereo tracks are visible, but I need the other vid tracks' audio to align all the video shots.
I even tried creating a multicam Timeline, but that just arendered one of the video tracks on the Timeline. (That said, I had no idea what multicam does, but it sounds like it's a useful mode for my purposes, although the video is not sync'd by timecode, hust three separate camera takes.)
I thought it would be a simple (albeit slightly time consuming) task to pull in the media and drag around until they are sync'd. It's truning out to be a total crapshoot, with Studio having a mind of its own in regards where the files appear in the Timeline and hiding/obliterating audio.
Where am I going wrong? What is the standard procedure to set this up?
