Once all of the my clips were imported into Final Cut Pro X, I started to sync my audio to my sound. After many failed attempts at using the 'multi cam' tool and also the 'automatic sync' tool, I decided to sync the sound the old school way and do it manually for each clip. It took me a full day to match up the audio just to my wide shot clips which I filmed on the Sony EX Cam, and I then had to find shorter clips which I could then cut down and match the audio with them too.
Having a 'Clapper' at the start of each track helped me so much and enabled drop my videos clips in at where they roughly should have been, meaning I only needed to tweak them a little to get the sound on the mark. Final Cut Pro X is a software which I am not very familiar with, however, I was able to get to grips with it quite easily. This version was easier for me to use in relation to sound, as the viewer allows you to see the wave formats much more clearly then Final Cut Pro 7. I also used markers during my edit which were a great help, and something which I have not really used before. I fell like I have learnt a lot from using the newer version and I can't wait to get editing again!
