I was asked to quote an editing project where everyone was to use a Flip to record their video. Then Flip announced its demise, today I was asked if the project could be done with each participant supplying their own camera. Going in now already I was told that could be iphone, other smartphone or some other camera if some of the participants balk at using a Flip.
We won't be compiling across the various participants, but we will need to render each to a uniform format, frame rate and size.
I have no control over the selection, nor what choices anyone makes. They will be on their own, and when it gets here, then I will know what I have to work with. There are to be about 20 participants, so I am thinking realistically I could have 5-7 variations to have to work with.
Each participant's video will be brought into Premiere, cleaned up, trimmed up, titled up and rendered into its own clip. I know Premiere can work across the various types, but do you think am I further ahead to transcode everything when it shows up, and use a common Premiere Project ??? If you do feel transcode is the way to go, which program do you suggest ???
Thanks... any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated !!!
