    Oh man, I've been editing on FCP for so much years but there is some cool tips that I didn't know it (favorites, for example). Thank you!

    I’ve used FCPX for years and I think I learned more in this video than any other tutorial I’ve watched. Awesome video!!

  • @BenettGraezer

    Another great tip that helped me save time when cutting my A-Roll is to playback the clips at 2x speed by hitting space + L. You are welcome 😉

  • @CNMTCFilms
    @CNMTCFilms 3 роки тому +17

    One of my favorite tips is to custom set your keyboard shortcuts for slowing clips down. For example: I set shift+5 to make a clips 50% speed✨

  • @colorgradingcentral
    @colorgradingcentral 3 роки тому +39

    Tyler the advice on media management and the practices you use alone are worth gold! I'm going to start implementing them in my FCPX projects. The tips shared here are going to save SO MUCH time!!! THANK YOU 🙏🏼

    Three I use all the time. One, hold down option key, click drag any asset to duplicate it. Works on Mac OSX too, not just FCPX. Two, hit M twice to add a marker, with options (standard, to do, chapter), at the playhead. Three, shift-command-V to paste attributes, after a cmd-C of course. Great for quickly replicating attributes from clip to clip.

    Dude, the compound clip for easier color/exposure corrections is huge. Thanks so much for putting this together.

  • @ConnorCrosby
    @ConnorCrosby 3 роки тому +9

    One alternative to creating compound clips of A-roll (or any clip for that matter) is to "Open" the clip. Select the clip in the Browser or Timeline and go to Clip > Open Clip (you can assign it to a keyboard shortcut). This lets you adjust anything - color, audio, transform tools, etc - to the clip and have it be reflected anywhere in the Library.

    Great video. One point to add with deleting cache if you would still rather have the convenience of keeping them in your Library: Inside FCP, you can select your library and go to File, Delete Generated Library Files and you can remove from there. A bit more hidden but still keeps everything together. :)

    • @stalman

Something I’ve discovered since writing the above: after I moved my cache externally I found that my Mac would drop frames when playing back (it’s the current 16 inch). When I moved the cache back, it no longer does that. Interesting. Just FYI if you experience that. 😀

    Tagging, cache management and favourite clips/exporting them from compressor were my favourites . Also some of those shortcut key modifications I need to change.

    I use FCP quite a bit and what I learned new in this video was the favourites tip and making a compound clip for longer A roll so you can global change later. I knew about both functions before, but not in this context.
    My contribution is to customise the 'B' key to blade tool (without command), do the same for left right brackets (as you've already done), 'Z' to direct zoom all in, '+', '-' to direct zoom in and out and so on and so forth. All the stuff you use a lot, make it a direct key. Speeds up everything wonderfully!
