Shoot the wedding.
Skip the sync.

Four cameras, the officiant's lav, a recorder by the speakers.

Selects syncs the day, finds the moments, and hands you a cut to finish in your own editor.

Prompt: Sync all four cameras and the officiant's lav. Vows audio under the walk out

The day was eight hours.
The film is four minutes.

A wedding is shot once, on every camera you own: two shooters, a locked-off wide, a lav on the officiant and a recorder by the DJ. Before you cut a frame, all of it has to line up.

Then comes the logging. Scrub the whole day for the first look, the rings and the line in the toast that made the room laugh, and pull the vows off the lav because the camera audio is across the aisle. That is most of the edit, and none of it is the film.

Every angle synced.
Every moment found.

Every camera and every lav, synced

Four cameras, the officiant's lav and a recorder at the back: Selects syncs them in one step, by waveform or timecode, and matches each voice to its mic. The vows play off the lav, not the camera across the aisle.

A ceremony cut that follows who's speaking

Ask for the ceremony cut and Selects switches to whoever is speaking, then goes wide at natural moments. Set your own rules in plain words, like stay on the couple during the vows.

The first look, the rings, the toast

Search the day by what happened, not by file name. Ask for the first kiss or every laugh during the toasts, then ask for a three-minute highlight cut around them.

Finish in the editor you grade in

Hand the cut to Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Avid Media Composer as a project file, with every track, cut point and link to your original media. You add color, effects and transitions there, since they don't carry over.

Same wedding. Done before next Saturday.

FAQ

Can Selects sync a multi-camera wedding?

Yes. Selects syncs 10 or more camera angles in one project, plus separate lav, boom and wireless audio, by audio waveform or by timecode.

Waveform sync needs sound that overlaps. A camera with no audio track, or a clip under about ten seconds, won't sync that way, so you place it by hand with markers.

How do I get the vows off the officiant's lav?

Sync the lav with the cameras and Selects matches each voice to its mic, so the vows play from the lav, not from a camera across the aisle.

To choose for yourself, right-click any clip and pick its audio track, or tell chat, like keep the lav under the walk out.

Can it find the first kiss or the ring exchange?

Yes. Scene search finds moments by what's on screen, like the kiss, the rings or a full dance floor, and text search finds any line from the vows or the toasts.

Only analyzed footage is searchable. Analysis takes about 20 minutes per hour of video, counted file by file, and you can keep working while it runs.

Do I have to analyze every file from the day?

No. Nothing is analyzed until you start it, and analysis runs file by file, so you can begin with the ceremony and the toasts.

If all you need is the sync, hand off the synced timeline with no analysis at all.

Can I finish the film in Premiere, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Avid Media Composer?

Yes. Selects hands off to Adobe Premiere (.prproj), Final Cut Pro (.fcpxml), DaVinci Resolve (.drp) or Avid Media Composer (.aaf) with your edit points, tracks, speaker labels and links to the original media. In Premiere and Resolve you choose whether the multicam arrives nested.

Color, effects and audio levels don't carry over, and transitions arrive as plain cuts, so the grade and the mix happen in your editor.

Can I re-cut what Selects assembles?

Yes. The cut is a draft on a real timeline. Trim it by hand with Premiere, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve shortcuts, or give notes in chat, like hold the wide through the processional.
