Cut and switch angles in the Angle Viewer
After you create a multicam clip, you can watch all angles simultaneously in the Angle Viewer
while switching or cutting to different angles in real time. This allows you to cut an entire
movie as if it were live, and then fine-tune your edits in the Timeline just as you would for any
other project.
The Angle Viewer is both a display and an interactive interface for making quick cut and switch
decisions as you play back your multicam clips and projects. Angles appear in banks of 2, 4, 9, or
16 angles.
