Re: Slightly OT: Multi-Camera Shoot - 384 Hours

for large amounts of hd footage on a budget cant agree more HDV is the way to do this project, tapeless cant be backed up and will be more hassle than its worth

also might be an idea to work offlineRT if the plan is to really cut the footage down, plus I wouldnt want to see multicam editing with HDV native footage and Prores or dvcpro might get more expensive storage wise than can be afforded especially if tapeless and therefore needing good redundant storage

learn offlinert workflow and using media manager and all the tricks to not mess up with multicam sounds like best bet

good to know if people have HDV working natively with 4 angles simultaneous multicam, if so capture in that and then finish in prores

make sure you use time of day timecode and then use the multiclip sequence feature, this is designed workflow for what you are trying to do. this should be easy to setup in camera if cameras time of day are in synch to begin with and wouldnt need timecode feed to each camera therefore reduce cost probably.

my bit finished!
