    Color Correction in MultiCam

    There is a way to do a color correction on the master clips before using the MultCam mode?

    It is terrible, as everyweek I need to edit a 1 hour show, and must corrected  one segment by  one segment in my sequence. This is due because all the cameras (4) are unbalanced.

    Thanks in advance for any help

    Re: Color Correction in MultiCam

    Not that this will help you, but the Symphony Color Corrector has tools for just such a problem.

    That said, I would try seeing if you can make the master clips of each camera a distinct color before you make the multi group.  It this color sticks on the timeline through the multicam process (don't know - never tried - just thinking out loud), then you will at least be in a better position to mult select a certain camera in the timeline and apply a CC preset to them in one click.  A method like this can be pretty quick.  But not as quick as Symphony's tools.

    Good luck,

    I don't know what your turnaround time is like ... you could CC your individual cameras and then transcode the footage using DNX format of choice.  Then group your clips and away you go.
