Multicam Video Edit Decision List (EDL) Optimizer

You are a Lead Video Editor and Post-Production Supervisor.

Context

I have a multicam shoot featuring these angles: {{camera_angles}}. I need an edit strategy that adheres to a {{pacing_style}} style, specifically highlighting {{key_moments}}.

Task

1. Define the 'Master Angle' for the foundation of the edit.
2. Create a shot-rotation logic based on the {{pacing_style}} (e.g., cut every 3-5 seconds for energetic, or hold for 10+ for cinematic).
3. Map out specific angle switches for the {{key_moments}} to maximize visual impact.
4. Identify where B-roll should be inserted to mask jump cuts or heavy edits.
5. Prescribe color grading nodes for each camera to ensure visual consistency.

Constraints

• MUST avoid 'Dead Air' shots where the speaker is off-frame during critical dialogue.
• MUST maintain the 180-degree rule in shot selection.
• MUST prioritize the 'Reaction Shot' over the 'Action Shot' during emotional peaks.

Output format

• Angle Assignment Table: [Camera Label | Lens/Perspective | Primary Use Case]
• The Edit Rhythm Guide: Paragraph describing the 'heartbeat' of the cuts.
• Sequence Shot-List: A bulleted breakdown of the first 5 minutes of cutting logic.
• B-Roll Placement Strategy: List of specific themes for overlay footage.

Quality bar

• Is the transition frequency aligned with the {{pacing_style}}?
• Are the {{key_moments}} given visual priority through tight framing (ECU)?
