Editing Video Using a Storyboard

You can edit multiple assets using a storyboard.

  1. Select an asset to add to a storyboard in the asset list of the Asset screen, and click the [Create Storyboard] button.
  2. Enter a name and description for the storyboard in the dialog, select the timebase for the storyboard, and click [OK].

    Note

    • The frame rate of the selected asset(s) becomes the frame rate of the storyboard.
  3. Double-click the created storyboard to display the storyboard preview and timeline.
  4. Select another asset you want to add to the storyboard in the asset list.
    The preview of the asset appears.
  5. Drag & drop the asset into the timeline or select [Add to current storyboard] from the context menu in the preview area.

    The asset is added to the timeline.

    Note

    • Assets added to the storyboard must have the same frame rate.
  6. Select the asset on the timeline, and set an In point and Out point in the preview area.

    Note

    • You can select the title of a storyboard on the timeline to preview and play the whole storyboard.
    • You can check essence marks added on a camcorder in a storyboard.
  7. When finished editing, select [Export] from the timeline context menu.
  8. To manage the edited video as an asset, select an export destination in the [Settings] tab of the dialog.
    You can also add a watermark. To use a watermark, it must be configured beforehand using [Resource] > [Watermark Preset] on the Settings screen.
  9. To upload the video to an SNS, place a check mark in the [Upload] checkbox for the SNS types to which you wish to upload on the [Publish] tab of the dialog, and configure the account settings and upload settings.
  10. To edit an EDL in a non linear editor, select [Export EDL] from the context menu.
    Select the EDL format in the dialog, and select whether to download the EDL and proxy video or to transfer the EDL and high-resolution video to an FTP server. To transfer the high-resolution video, select the FTP server for transfer. You can also set the number of seconds for pre-roll/post-roll.

    Note

    • To transfer high-resolution video, the camcorder on which the target asset is stored must be online.
    • Just as for the file transfer function, only an FTP server configured beforehand on the camcorder can be specified as the transfer destination for high-resolution video.
    • For PXW-Z280/Z190/FX9 camcorders, the FTP transfer destination registered in XDCAM air is also displayed as the file transfer destination for high-resolution video transfer.
  11. Click the [Next] button.
  12. Click the [Finish] button.
