Like I recorded a dance and one of my camera was on the right side and the other was on the left how do i combine both recorded videos?


Answer
Recording the event is not a problem, BUT you have to sync the two cameras, or its going to be a nightmare, personally I would start the cameras at the same time and leave them running, at the start make a loud noise like they do with the old clapper boards. this will give you a spike in the audio on both cameras then you know where to sync them.

maybe have one camera static and the other moving about, two static cameras are as boring as one really. Once you have finished your filming put the video onto your computer and open your editing software, windows movie maker is not up to it. so get something that has multiple time lines, add them both and sync them, using that peak in the audio.

simply it goes what ever you take out of one time line it must add up exactly to the part used in the other, if not you will be out of sync again. say you use 8.34 seconds you need to cut 8.34 seconds out of the other track.

Now you need audio, taking the audio from one camera then using the other camera will not work the audio played back will at least be disgusting. so using another audio source (the master) providing its central to the video. when played back it will sound right, if you use this method then you have to add the clap to this when you sync the videos.


Software, well its not going to take you that long to edit the video (depending its not to long) so get a trial version of adobe premere CS4 /5 and use that, you will be able to do basically what you want. or if you are brave http://www.lightworksbeta.com/ it has a really steep learning curve, but it will do everything you will ever want it to, and its free. but not easy to use.

Answer
The one free multitrack video editor I'm familiar with is this one:

Haven't tried it myself, but it's worth a shot. Make sure you keep backup copies of your videos.

In the video editor, you put each video clip in its own track. You should be able to find some way to verify that the tracks are synchronized (e.g. lowering opacity on upper track, using split screen) by looking for things like camera flashes, impacts, or other things you would only see for one video frame (1/30–1/60th of a second, depending on format). You can then use transitions or set keyframes for opacity to dissolve between the two viewpoints.

If you recorded the audio separately, you'll need to synchronize the audio as well. If the audio on one of the video clips is of sufficient quality, you can use that instead.
