Brad, your opening sequence is SMOKIN'! Thanks for showing us how you did it... so clear and really easy now that we know how! Oh.... and from now on that's the Fast Zoom Effect, because YOU said it is! Thanks, Brad!
I can not recommend you guys enough, when ever I have asked a question you have answered with simplicity, the Knowledge that you hold is priceless, for anyone who needs advice about anything to do with editing these are the go to people, and for those who gave the 👎 show us what you know (keyboard warriors) thank you Brad and Donna and keep up your good work.
If you liked that you should watch the 10 Shortcuts Every Editor Should Know video I did with Dylan John. That shortcut, along with some other great ones are in there 😊 ua-cam.com/video/c3IjGnU4NtQ/v-deo.html
Super solid video my dude! I’ve never watched Big Bang Theory, but the effect looks great! I was actually anticipating this to be more difficult than it was.

I thought it is so hard to do that and i learned the tips and tricks about it. Wow what a quick one, like short and sweet. You are the Best, Thank you guys. Keep going...
I tried to do that but my files are 60 FPS. Is that possible to change it to 24 FPS and do this fast zoom effect. Please advise and educate me on this - Thank you
You you can absolutely do that. You can drop those clips onto a 24fps or 30fps timeline and do the same thing and it will work perfectly. On a 30fps timeline it might be pretty quick with a duration of 3 frames per clip so you could try 4. Thanks for watching! 😊🙏🏼
FCP does it automatically for you. When you create a new project, make sure you set the frame rate manually to 24 or 30fps and when you drop the clips on the timeline, FCP automatically adjusts playback for that frame rate 😊👍🏼
When I shoot specifically for this affect, I might consider the subject and where it is placed in the frame. My thinking is this… shooting at varying heights from the ground and it editing place those images from low to high, so in playback the images will zoom in but from a low perspective to high… I might give it a go at Disneyland where there are hundreds of possible locations to film for this technique.
@@Brad_West well my vacation is coming up… I’ll consider both techniques..and maybe post up the results…. I’m not one for boring “home movies” Especially if they go up on UA-cam!
Thanks Brad for this quick and useful tuto. But on an other topic, can you tell me if it is possible to merge two projects into one in final cut pro X and if so, how do we do it?
Glad you enjoyed it 😊👊🏼 Yeah you can. You can open both projects and then drag the timelines from one to the other library to another by dropping it on the event in the browser window. Hope that helps! 🤞🏼
@@Brad_West Thank you Brad, my intentions here were to work in chapters in my montage and I think it would be easier to create compounds clips and drag them from one event to my main project after.
Thank you very much for the great video. However, I'm getting desperate. When I have copied the attributes with "command C" and want to transfer them to all other images with "shift/command/ V", they are not inserted in everything. What could be the reason for this?
Please tell me where to get the reverse cymbal rising sound> I’ve looked everywhere and no one has that same one. They just off quick little 2 sec blips that aren’t long and smooth like yours. Please please advise..
Another cool tip ! Thank you ! ( Question: when I highlight all my clips of different lengths, and set them to 3 frames each, they shorten - however, I am left with grey blank spaces between clips indicating original length of the clip. What am I doing wrong ? Thank you )
@@Brad_West Hello hope this helps "El Mono" You need to First Group them by pressing (Command G, then you can move unto the next step of 3 seconds long and it will work) you then just Ungroup them by using (Shift-Command-G) IF you want to have them back as individual clips . Espero que ayude Mono :)
Are there any other effects/tutorials from TV shows or movies that you would like to see? Let me know in the comments down below. 😊👇🏼

Thank so much! I truly appreciate those kind words 😊🙏🏼 There is always going to be one (or a few) keyboard warriors haha 😂🤷🏻♂️ Thanks for watching!
Command Shift V was the best tip in this video. I never knew you could do that!!!!

Great tip! I have some honeymoon footage that I am definitely going to try this with!
Great idea! It will make a good intro or even summary of the honeymoon at the end of the video 😊🤙🏼 Where did you go on honeymoon?

It’s hard to tell without seeing your screen. Any way you can record your screen and send me a link?

If I remember correctly I got that one from FreeSound.org 🤔 Let me know if you find it there.
Another cool tip ! Thank you ! ( Question: when I highlight all my clips of different lengths, and set them to 3 frames each, they shorten - however, I am left with grey blank spaces between clips indicating original length of the clip. What am I doing wrong ? Thank you )
Hmmm 🤔 Do you have the position tool active when you do it? Maybe hit A to activate your select tool and try again? Let me know if that works.

@@safetyhomeloans950 Great suggestion!
I dont think its Control D anymore
Yup. Control D still works for me 😄👍🏼
