How to Zoom One Clip in Multi-Camera Sequence?

  • April 28, 2018

I combined two clips (one UHD, one HD) into a multi-cam sequence, and edited it in a HD timeline to cut back and forth between the two clips. The UHD clip is a medium-closeup shot and the HD clip is a choker shot. In order to get the UHD parts to not get cut off, I had to manually select each segment and fit it to the frame. Is there a more efficient way to do this?

Also, I'd like to take advantage of the fact that the medium-closeup clip is 4K to do a zoom on it over the length of the clip. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

      Actually just figured this out.

      In your project window, right click on the "Multicam" thing that was created after you built your multicam sequence. Click "Open in Timeline". This basically brings up the nested sequence that was created. Then you can go to whichever clip and make the adjustments. Those are then reflected in your mutlicam sequence.

      Thanks

      Running into this same issue. If you go to the multicam sequence and click on the panel you want to zoom in on.. go to Effects.. Scale.. set to 150 or whatever. It scales ALL the clips in the multicam. There has to be a way to do this.

          double click on your multicam sequence, this will open the source sequences,

          right click on the sequence you are referring to and set to frame size or adjust

          its scale from the effect controls panel. This will update its size in the multicam sequence

            This has not worked for me over here in the year 2023 🙂
            I have tried double clicking from the timeline and the source multicam seq. Nothing opens that allows me to adjust the size so far.

            You'll have to adjust the original clip in the Source Sequence.  Right click on it from the bin and select Open in Sequence (or Timeline, I forget).
