    What does it mean when a production is shot multicam?

    • A camera with different lenses was used to film various actions.

    • Multiple cameras were used to shoot different actions at different times.

    • Multiple cameras were used to shoot the same action at different times.

    • Multiple cameras were used to shoot the same action at the same time but from different angles.

    Correct Answer
    A. Multiple cameras were used to shoot the same action at the same time but from different angles.
    Explanation
    The term "shot multicam" refers to the use of multiple cameras to capture the same action simultaneously but from different angles. This technique allows for different perspectives and angles to be captured at the same time, providing more dynamic and varied footage. By using multiple cameras, filmmakers can capture different shots simultaneously, saving time and allowing for more efficient production.

    When creating a multiclip, what are the three ways you can sync clips or angles?

    • Sprockets

    • Out Points

    • Timecode

    • In Points

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Out Points
    A. Timecode
    A. In Points
    Explanation
    When creating a multiclip, there are three ways to sync clips or angles: Out Points, Timecode, and In Points. Out Points refer to the end of a clip or angle, Timecode is a specific timestamp that allows for precise synchronization, and In Points refer to the start of a clip or angle. These three methods ensure that the different clips or angles are aligned properly in the multiclip, allowing for smooth playback and editing.
