I have just been testing VMix and am impressed with how it handles on my 3 year old AMD quad core.

If testing goes well, I would like to upgrade to an i7 with the plan of doing 3 camera shoots (each chromakeyed) of interviews: Cam1= Interviewer and Interviewee in wide shot; Cam2= Interviewer in mid shot; Cam3= Interviewee in mid shot.

Are there virtual sets that can be used in VMix that allow for 3 cameras? Are there ones that look more realistic than the ones provided? I'm not interested so much in the virtual set having tracking and movement as I am in the 3 shots integrating well.

Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,

The "MultiView" feature in vMix can be used to combine various input layers to build your own static virtual sets.
The steps are briefly:

1. Add the background and foreground images of the virtual set into vMix. There are various sites with professional
virtual sets available that provide them as static images you can use in vMix.

2. Add the camera

3. Double click the background input to go into the properties and go to the MultiView tab. Set the Overlay 1 to
the camera and Overlay 2 to the foreground image (if required).

You can also adjust the position of any of these layers
from the Position tab to simulate camera angles.

Regards,

Martin

This sounds so great, can we have a video tutorial of the above soon? most especially this portion:

Excellent info. I will download a virtual set, pull the static images & give it a try.
Thanks,
