Benefits of Eddie AI’s multicam editing feature:
Receive rough cuts, based on your prompts, with the right camera angles chosen at the right moments
Receive the unedited source but with the right camera angles chosen at the right moments.
Prerequisites for Eddie’s Multicam Editing:
Access: Multicam editing is invite-only—request access and use the activation code sent by the Eddie team.
Files Needed: Upload 2–3 video files with audio for waveform sync, plus one main audio track (optional) (e.g., lav mic or .wav file).
Formats & Limits: Accepted formats are .mov, .mp4, .mxf, and .wav. Projects must stay under 3 hours of total footage.
Processing Time: Multicam imports take longer—wait for an email confirming your project is synced and ready to edit.
Pro Tip: To export the sync'd source footage with camera angles chosen for your NLE (Adobe, FCP, Resolve, Avid), import your footage and once it is ready, you will see a video player in the interface. This video player has all the raw footage/camera angles. Click the export button under the player and then choose the appropriate video editing application format to download an XML/FCPXML/EDL. To learn how to then import that file to your video editing application, see here.
Here’s how to import and use AI multicamera video editing:
1. Create a New Project:
Log in to your Eddie account and start a new project.
2. Import your Multicam Project:
Let's import your Multi-cam project. In the project setup, choose Multicam from the import options.
3. Upload Your Files:
All imported media assets must have audio for the system to align them correctly. Eddie uses waveform sync to sync your files together.
Eddie supports a minimum of 2 camera angles and up to 3 camera angles. (We are adding support for additional camera angles in the near future.)
Eddie supports 1 main audio (ie good audio from a lav, for example).
Choose which of your videos have this main audio or upload a separate wav file.
Eddie today does not support more than 1 main audio.
Note: The import process for multicam takes longer than importing a standard project because multicam projects have more media and need more AI analysis.
You will receive an email once your multicam project has imported, is synced, and is ready to edit.
4. Ready for Multicam Rough Cutting
Once your multicam project has imported, is synced, and is ready to edit: give Eddie a prompt to cut a story together. Eddie will create that edit and it will also choose the right camera angle at the right moment.
Iterate on edits with Eddie.
NOTE:
Download the Fully Synced Edit: Export a fully synced version with the chosen camera angles.
