Step-by-step

Generate assets with Doubletake

1 Seeing double

To use Doubletake with a two lens iphone XR, give the app permission to use your camera and mic. Tap the Camera Picker icon to see the feed from the wide and selfie lenses.

2 Record two lenses

The selfie lens is monochrome until you tap it. Tap the Confirm button. This takes you to the camera screen. Tap Record. You’ll see both lenses onscreen at the same time.

3 View footage

Although you can see both clips onscreen during recording, you are filming two separate HD clips. Stop recording. Tap the Library button top-left to view these two HD clips.

4 More lenses

Here we’ve captured two separate angles of an interviewee using an iphone 11 Pro’s wide and tele lenses. This gives us the choice to cut between wide and close in Final Cut.

5 Picture in picture

Tap the Shooting Mode Selector to toggle to PIP (Picture in Picture mode). This records a single composite video clip featuring a small picture inserted into a full-frame clip.

6 Animate PIP effect

After tapping the record icon in PIP mode you can drag the inserted picture around the screen. This movement and repositioning is recorded in the resulting movie.

7 Let’s split

Tap the Camera Picker to choose different lenses. Tap the Shooting Mode Selector to switch to the Split Screen mode. Here we have ultra wide feed on the left and tele on the right.

8 Export clips

Tap the Library icon to view clips. Tap a clip to view it full-screen. Tap ‘X’ to close. Tap the Select icon then tap clips to export. Tap Share and use Airdrop to export to your Mac.

9 Import to Final Cut Pro

Import your Doubletake clips. Shift-click to select them both then right-click and choose ‘New Multicam Clip’. Use the Angle Viewer to cut between the synced clips in the timeline.
