Struggling to get the adjustment layers to show in FCPX?? Check out this video for how to get them working nicely - ruclips.net/video/M8pm62ssstc/видео.html
Thanks for this! Can you use the crop adjustment layer in conjunction with key frames? So instead of a quick crop, could you theoretically do a digital zoom across multiple clips?
Switched to Final Cut from Premiere, took me a while to find out that there are no built in adjustment layers. Now thanks to you I have them. Thanks man!
After watching an old Daniel Schiffer vid this morning I thought about duplicating and renaming my normal 'adjustment layer' that I got a while ago. You clearly have magical superpowers LOL I often find I'm using two or three at a time so giving them appropriate names is bloody handy.
OMG I just realized that I can use adjustment layers for transitions! Fade to color was ALWAYS causing me to lose a little media (with an error message), no matter the media length. No more! Now adding a transition won't cut off some of the video. SO GRATEFUL! 🙌👏🙏🙏🙏
The most important piece of information on Motion/FCPro I have heard yet. Thank you for covering, what is at its core, so basic; But to a beginner is not basic at all.
From a point of view of a content creator who "has" to do vid editing this is gonna be a game changer. Love your vibe man. And I virtually never take the time to comment on other people's videos! Thanks a lot!
@@WillChidlow know what, seeing as you’re here and I never get direct access to any FCP ninjas, another thing that drives me up the wall is selecting two or more items in the timeline but NOT being able to drag all their edges together to make that selection shorter or longer? I’ve tried all the modifier keys etc. So - if you wanna blow apart my world again - can you multiple select then drag all the edges TOGETHER? For example I might have an image with a title and I want to make them both longer at the same time. Thanks man. 🙏🏻
just went through all your old videos and you've improved allot. You used to talk allot and repeat yourself allot trying to get to the point vs now your editing these videos very smoothly keeping the conversation flowing, awesome channel growth bro
Dude! You are a legend, Ive been using Premiere pro for ages and not having adjustments layers since switching to final cut has been brutal. First tutorial that has actually worked! Thanks heaps 🤙🏻
I love having the adjustment layer, it makes things so quick to apply effects to all clips a keep the same look throughout the video. thx for sharing Will.
Really really nice of you to teach the zoom effect using adjustment layer. I've been searching for long time those "smart editing workflows" but couldn't find it. Accidentally find it here looking for adjustment layer. Thanks! Hope to find more of these techniques.
Hi Friends! Hope you find this video informative and helpful! Let me know what other Final Cut Pro tutorials you would like to see me cover with a comment below, thanks! 👍🙏😎
Will Chidlow , Bro, just started to watch ur vlogs 💯 love your presentation and style It’s just simple and informative 🤝👍🏻 Do check my sister’s photography vlogs if u wouldn’t mind @akiya komachi photography journey All Thanks to your editing tips Respect 🙌🏻 and Thank u 🙏🏻
I have motion templet folder and its empty. I create Titles folder and put Adjustment layer in it. it doesn't show in FCPX. I restart still same issue.
I’m just starting up with FCPX and Motion and this video was an awesome intro into adjustment layers and I love how you give each of yours roles (grade, crop, correct). Thanks so much for this vid!
Thaks a lotttttt, i was looking for this for so long, and you make it so easily, done in only 5- 10 minutes, it's change my life aha, thanks from France
hi Will, thanks for the video, it's very helpful. however, i seem to have the motion templates folder already, but nothing is in that folder. so when i created the "Titles" folder in it, and put your adjustment layer file, it doesn't show up in my final cut pro. could you please let me know what i can do? thank you!
Ok try this: in finder locate the titles folder, right click and select get info. In the new window that opens add to the folder name .localized so the complete name is now Titles.localized restart FCPX and you should be good to go 👍🙏😎
Awesome content Will. I'm brand new to all things Apple/Mac/FCPX and I love all of it! After watching this video I upgraded my trial version of FCPX, bought Motion, downloaded your Adjustment Layer and life is good. Thank you much sir! SUBSCRIBED.
I really like the way you lay things out, straight forward and to the point. I have learned a lot in a little amount of time. Keep it up and thanks for the adjustment layers.
Hey will! Having an issue when updating my final cut, it breaks my adjustment layers and I end up with a red screen with a "!" next to a T, insinuating that there's a problem with the text layer. any fixing this?
Hi Julian, if you install the layers in the core of FCPX then updates will delete them and you’ll have to re add them to the folder. Check out my video on installing effects for some better work arounds. Hope that helps
Thanks a lot, super useful - was looking for exactly that. Remember learned it from another video but could not find it + extra advice on different naming of layers - genius!
Wow! this is so helpful. While I was watching your video, I downloaded your file and got it up and running before the end of the video. This so helpful and will save me so many hours plus the consistency of adjustments, crops, grades, etc.. will improve my final output. Thank You😎🤙
These layers are very helpful! I was just doing all of these copy and paste, and paste attributes and it takes a lot of time and effort 😁Although I got stuck after 3:11 since I did not find any of the folders you have in Movies > Motion Templates, so I just google-searched How to install Apple Motion Templates in FCPX and got your four layers all right in my Titles. Thanks very much!
Hi! If you don’t have the folders you can simply create them but see some of my earlier comments on the video as you have to name them properly (.localized) in order for them to work. Hope that helps and thanks for watching
hi, thanks for watching. once you have clicked the link you need to click the small down arrow next to the title (above the folder icon) and select download. hope that helps
Thanks for sharing your adjustment layers. That's very helpful tool. I thought it's part of Final Cut and was surprised that I didn't find any. Cheers.
Hi, thanks! For audio effects you have 2 options, select all clips you want to affect and create a compound clip to add audio effects to, or copy and paste with attributes across all clips. Neither is quite as nice as using an adjustment layer but there you have it. Hope that helps 👍🙏😎
killin it bro! I'm a final cut noob!! I don't really understand LUTs. Other than that they sort of change the format from Log to rec 709... or something. Do I need to use a LUT if I already have rec 709 footage and I'm just trying to color grade?
Cheers dude! Simply speaking LUTS remap the pixels colours to an alternative colour space. From log to rec709 as you mention is one good example. However LUTS can also be used to produce more stylistic results even when using rec709 footage. They are of course totally optional, some editors prefer dialling in a look completely manually, I like using LUTS but without over doing it. Hope that helps
Hi Will thanks for the video, for some reason the adjustment fold isn't showing under the titles section. Do you know why this would but the but adjustments are showing if I search for them. Any help would be great
This fellow should be in the 100K subs, great tutorial overall. Would like to see a video about camera settings to then color grading in FCPX. fyi I'm using a canon M50 thanks
Good question! I’m not actually sure 🤔 in theory it could slightly reduce render file size as effects would only be added to the section of clip covered rather than the whole clip but I’ve never tested that. A great thought though! I mainly use as a time saving tool more than a space saving one. Thanks for watching 👍🙏😎
Dude! Awesome video, thanks a lot! A question: do you know in what order are the layers applied if I have many on top of each other? In case I want to do color correction before adding a conversion LUT etc? Thanks!
I am just starting to adopt layers, I have created some new 'video role' colours I can assign so that they look different, can help one see more easily what each one is.
Thanks for the layer and the clear description of both how and why. Very helpful. Is there a way to make the layer longer? I find I have to zoom in after adding it to "grab" the handles to stretch it to my timeline length. Thanks, Marc
hi!! very lovely video..I have a question: do you have an idea why when I open Final cut and the project opens it takes 5 - 7 minutes to load Look Grade or the other adjustment layer?thanks a lot
@@WillChidlow I've just re installed fcpx cuz I changed OS and then I downgraded it...anyway long story short, it started to do this just now..back on the other OS even big project never had issue.. no idea.. also .. .. it would be cool to have an adjustment layer for the audio to set everything with limiters and compressors..do you know if it exist? Thanks a lot!
When I apply the adjustment, for some reason, no matter what I try, it crops in the footage. So weird... it only does it once I apply my custom effect. Any idea why? The effect does not have any preset or settings to punch/crop in so I don't know why its doing it. I am updated on the latest FCPX as of May 24th 2022. Your video rocked and I appreciate what you did!
WOW! Really cool video. Those are definitely time savers. I love how you can continue to develop different techniques in FCPX that fit your specific needs. its way more intuitive than any other NLE I've used .
If I use an adjustment layer inside of a compound clip, then when I go back out of the compound clip to view the main project, the compound clip is now covered in the adjustment layer default image (the mountains) and I can't see the preview of my actual video (because its under the adjustment layer). Is there any way to get rid of this? Hope this question makes sense. Thank you for the tutorial.
Brilliant thanks :) I was stuck for a while but then found your comment about right clicking the files and inserting .localized ...... Problem solved, cheers!
Hi Will. I am very new to FCPx and editing as such. Been behind cameras for 40 years!!! How do I create a multi layered scoreboard with 10 names under each other?? For golf final scoreboard?
Hi Ettiene, thats not an easy question to answer in a comment. If it were me i would either design the scoreboard using something like photoshop, sketch or illustartor and then import a clear background version as PNG and animate the components in FCPX or Id have a look at premaid assets on sites such as Videohive, this will be a quicker option that will likely produce nicer results if you can find a template that is close enough to what you want to achieve. hope that helps
Hey 👋 thanks so much for your kind words! I’ve been slowly trying to improve my office setup and lighting for the last few years so I’m glad that it’s paying off and getting noticed. Glad you got some value from the video too! Hope you are doing ok at the moment 👍🙏🙏😎
@@WillChidlow Yeah it's really really nice :) It's very soothing? to look at. You aren't all over the place and making people dizzy or doing too much. It's juuuuust right :)
Is there a way to lock an adjustment layer, so It cannot be accidentally changed? I've been using an adjustment layer over my entire timeline, since my rendered output file looks slightly different than the viewer in final cut.

Thank you! Everyone else just seems to be selling stuff online in the name of helping others. What a world!
If you've done all of this and it still doesn't show up in FC, you have to add .localized to your 'titles' folder. Worked for me :)

Hi! Can you lock the adjustment layer so that you cant change the settings accidentally? Thanks!
Does this cut down on the file size compared to putting the same filters on the actual clips?
Looks pretty useful!
Good question!

I am just starting to adopt layers, I have created some new 'video role' colours I can assign so that they look different, can help one see more easily what each one is.
This is a great idea Lee, one I’ve used myself on occasion. Thanks for adding 👍👍
what order should the layers be in? Like for color grading, does the Lut layer stay on top or does it matter? Thanks!
Hi, I tend to first add corrections, then add stylistic LUTS on top. Hope that helps

Will, this is excellent, thanks! Is it also possible to create an AUDIO adjustment layer, so that master effects can be applied to a group of clips?

Thank you soooo much for the explanation and the adjustment layer itself!!!!
No worries! Glad to help! 👍🙏😎
