After using Vegas for 10 years and messing up with the shortcuts I can't live without them anymore! So after moving to FCPX I instantly changed the shortcuts and you should too! This is my BEFORE = SHORTCUT CTRL + Z == 1 CMD + B == 2 DELETE == 3 SHIFT + RIGHT == 4 So my left hand basically doesn't move, 1234 and I'm all set =)
1:30 especially for people who are new to editing.. it may be worth changing the name of the video and audio so that they match (are the same). Like video & 1 audio 1. You could even add a shorter version of your project name, so that you are sure you have the right files in FCPX! I Once matched the wrong audio with the wrong video and was like... Never again!! Thanks so much for this video 👍🏿 Workflow is everything 💯
You just blowed my mind LOL I've been using FCPX for more than 2 years now, and still got some new tips and shortcuts from this video! Amazing! thank you!
The CTRL-V for the title animations has just made me so angry and happy at the same time! I wasted so much time messing around with keyframes, this will help so much - thank you!
Use the range tool (R) for selecting an area where you want to paste (Q) something. In your case the adjustment layer or title. Just select the area and press Q. the footage will appear exactly on the selected area. But you gave me some good tips! I loved your video.
Thanks for this beautiful 'illustrated-fact-filled' video. Wasn't much interested in using shift+[ ] commands in the past, but, after seeing this video, I will try to use it more often! Also, I just loved your method of adjusting the zoom by scaling down the video to 25% and then making the adjustments! I am blessed with your videos. May God bless you abundantly.
New subscriber here. I like your style of teaching, it's very easy to follow. I just received my new iMac and installed Final Cut and Motion. I've been using Filmora which is extremely limiting and it will nice to take off the shackles. It's been 6 years since I've used Final cut and version 10 seems a bit different. I am sure I will get back to my old self with your help.
LOVED THIS video... subbed because I'm just starting to use FCP..... I'm an iMovie convert...iMovie was so easy, but FCP is so much better with it's abilities. These are great shortcuts though and thank you!
Thanks for the video. so much great info stuffed into it. Im using PP and considering FCX because Im using an older mac and FCX seems to work way faster.
Thanks for the video! So if you close the Library projects.... what do you do if you want to go back to that project again in the future to make changes to the edit... is there a way to re-open the edit?
I am making a bunch of piano videos where I overdub different screens where I play different parts of a song...it would be cool to know how to do a split/triple screen where all parts are featured at the same time.
You should stack up the videos one above the other and decide whether you want to place the three clip sections vertically or horizontally on the screen. Trim each clip from the sides and reposition them if you want the three scenes to be side by side. Otherwise, trim each clip at both top and bottom and position the clips one above the other as you would love to have them. Regards. Dr. Somanna
Brilliant, helpful video. Quick one on the default title - CTRL-T. For me this brings up FCPX's basic title which randomly doesn't allow me to keyframe it in any way. Is this a bug? I know you can change the default to whichever one you want. Did you just make a basic one of your own?
hi there i'm new to your channel but thank you so much for the video, so i recently (like yesterday i mean) i bullshit my way in a job interview, they asked me if i ever use FCP and i said "of course!" knowing damn well i dont even know what FCP logo looks like nor have i ever touched MAC my whole life BECAUSE I WAS DESPERATE and you gotta sell if you wanna be bought..yknow?, so tomorrow i have a test skill where i have to use FCP on MAC for the very first time in my life and pretends i know my shits like a pro. and this video is so easy to follow and all that hot keys mentions will make my lyin ass look like a pro. so thank you so much man! and wish me luck with the test...
Man, this is the funniest comment I've seen. I hope I land you the job...... let me know if it works out. Also, make sure to watch my Final Cut Pro X Beginners Tutorial. Good luck.
Marcos Rocha hey! i dont really know if you wanna hear about this but I GOT THE JOB! started working since monday all thanks to your videos i managed to use FCP for the first time in my life with no problem, in fact i found it to be a lot easier to use than premiere but i'm just not used to using MAC yet. but anyway you get yourself an additional subscriber! would love to learn more from your videos since it will help me with this new job that i got after lying. 😂
Very Helpful tutorial!! Marcos Rocha, by the way is your name from portuguese or spanish? im from Angola and speak portuguese, presiso saber se que camera usaste, pra filmar este video? obrigado. i need to know wish camera did you shut this clips? thanks
Hablo Español. I went to Portugal and they thought I was Portuguese because of my name. I shoot all my videos with the Sony a6300. I have a link to all my video equipment in the description. Thank you for the appreciation Carlos.
Awesome channel!! You could save a few clicks here and there still... if you keyframe it once for example, you don't have to click again, just change the value and it will automatically create a keyframe. Also, if you start with hitting a keyframe on the destiation point and then move the starting point with adding the 2nd keyfarme, you save even more clicks :).. Thanks for this informative video. I look forward to seeing more!
adjustment layer: how do I make one? not what they do, I get that. how would I go about creating one myself? I have Motion & FCPX. thanks for the excellent tutorials.
Hi Marcos, so many good tips in this video. I love what you say about workflow. It is critical. For my workflow I keep my whole FCP library on my Lacie Drive. FCP automatically opens the Library right from the Lacie Drive. By importing my footage into FCP it is really going into the library stored on my Lacie. I setup my events and projects as normal in FCP and all my footage is right there. What is the benefit of setting up individual folders in your Lacie? Really appreciate your advice here. I might be missing something.
Every video has a folder, so I can quickly reference the footage. I have several projects I am working on in my Lacie drive and its a good idea to stay organized.
Hi Marcos, I am sooooooooo psyched. Up until now I have been manually syncing audio and video. Never knew about the sync feature. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Yessssssss! As for the folder system I must be missing something. All of my footage is organized into events in FCP. In each event there is all my footage plus any projects I create. FCP is easily searchable and highly organized. It all rests, sort of like how photos does it, in one file grows and grows and I have sitting in my Lacie. Hmmmm.
Check out my Final Cut Pro X Masterclass: bit.ly/fcpxmasterclass
Love that you teach the shortcuts in your videos - it's much easier when you learn these at the start rather than halfway through
Yeah it makes it so much simpler to cut the footage
After using Vegas for 10 years and messing up with the shortcuts I can't live without them anymore! So after moving to FCPX I instantly changed the shortcuts and you should too!
This is my BEFORE = SHORTCUT
CTRL + Z == 1
CMD + B == 2
DELETE == 3
SHIFT + RIGHT == 4
So my left hand basically doesn't move, 1234 and I'm all set =)
Thats really cool. What about when you need to type in the number 1 or 2 as Text? Does it still work?
Marcos, I have never written a comment on youtube. You are hands down the best instructor I have seen so far!
Man, you just made my day! I am not a super polished speaker, but I hope I am straight to the point. Thanks for commenting! 😁

Let me know if you know of any tips or tricks I did not cover in this tutorial. Also, if I wasn't clear about something, ask away.

good to hear James 😁
This is awesome! Thank you so much!

Again. An outstanding post.
If i may ask, usually how much ISO do you use with your SLOG.2 footage? Still struggling to find the right exposure amount for best colour output
Thank Marcos, really nice work I just first starter and this is helpful ;)
Brilliant, helpful video. Quick one on the default title - CTRL-T. For me this brings up FCPX's basic title which randomly doesn't allow me to keyframe it in any way. Is this a bug? I know you can change the default to whichever one you want. Did you just make a basic one of your own?

You came to the right place. Here's a video I made just about that: ua-cam.com/video/_Lo0FOAz1ec/v-deo.html
thank you, I knew it had to be something simple. Just another good reason to have Motion as part of the FCPX package. @@MarcosRochaTV
Love your wedding slideshow.. What camera/lenses diid you use and what final editing programme/s? Thanks for the tutorial..
Nice Videos bro!
