Preparing for Builder
Preparing for Builder
Media for Builder is organized in the familiar environment of your choice: Final Cut Pro or Premiere Pro.
Import and organize your interviews in Event(s) or Bin(s) and - optionally - make Multicam or Synchronized Clips, before exporting XML to Builder. In Final Cut Pro, set your active audio angles in the Inspector so Builder gets only good quality audio.

Builder supports Audio only, AV Clips, Synchronized Clips and Multicam Clips. Builder does not support Projects, Compound Clips or Sequences.
In Final Cut Pro X, import the media associated with this Event. (Optional) Create multicam clips in Final Cut Pro X, or Synchronized Clips. For most purposes, Final Cut Pro X's multicam clips are more versatile than synchronized clips, even if there is only one angle of audio and one of video, because they remain 'live' and editable, so you can add new angles even after editing has started. Set appropriate video and audio angles as the active angles in the multicam.
IMPORTANT: Media must be fully imported before exporting XML. You can view the import progress in the Background Tasks window.
