Great video, very straight forward and easy to understand. I'm just an old man who's creatively and technically challenged, and even I was able to follow along and was cobbling together my first video within just a few minutes. Thanks for sharing.
You have a gift for presenting, you enunciate very well and move at a slower pace so that people can ABSORB what you are teaching. Thanks SO much for this. Far superior to any of the others I have seen. Subscribed😁👍
I’ve used Final Cut for years to make short videos for non-profits I believed in for years (for free). Because I’ve decided to get back into filmmaking, I searched online to find out what Final Cut looks like these days. This one is excellent. It covers just enough detail and is at the same time, just simple enough to make clear how the app now works and how I can use it. It employs the best teaching techniques (and I was once a teacher) and the best presentation techniques (and I was a technical writer and documentation leader for a major software company) so I know of what I speak. This is is one of the best online tutorials I’ve ever seen. Kudos!
Nice tutorial! I come from After Effects and Premiere Pro and wow! It's incredible how easy Final Cut makes editing for us. Definitely will start using it now.
Same here haha! I've been trying to learn Premiere Pro since I have it free through my school and still struggling with basic tasks. Then I see this and I realize things actually... make sense??
@@slw.2gr unfortunately, I uploaded the video this Wednesday, but once it got some traction and views, I got a copyright strike on it from Apple. Which is quite frustrating.
Question for you , so I have a timeline sequence with all clips etc. then there is one clip in the middle I want to delete, I hit delete but it also deletes the “unattached audio” below with it. Now this confuses me bc it is unattached why is it deleted that audio clip too? And is there a way to delete just the video portion without deleting the unattached audio? Reason I ask is bc I know it the timeline gets squished together to make up for the missing video clip , but I would just replace it with either black or another clip later
I had used FCP decades ago and pretty much forgot a lot about the interface, so thank you for introducing it back to me in a well-paced fashion. I've seen a number of FCP tutorial and your demeanor and explanations work best for me. I'm a subscriber. Much success in your life.
really good it's going to save me money on external editors since I've been using Imovie for years this is a nice upgrade. I like that I can upload elements from Envato or whoever. You made it simple. Thanks
Very helpful tutorial and a beautiful video as well. That's would be great if you could share how to draw and embed infographics like charts, graphs, maps ... (if any) in Final Cut Pro. Thanks.
Thank you SO much! This motivated me so much to use this for my 10 minute movie. Glad to know that colour grading is possible with Final Cut. This video was awesome, I left a like and a sub. Keep it up!
Where can I download presets from the internet? Also, does the video lag while you're editing it with Final Cut Pro? I've tried two different editing software and the video lags even when I lower the quality/resolution.Thanks!!!
The video portion of this was very good. HOWEVER - Your commentary has a VERY irritating issue. I counted over 100 uses of the term 'YA KNOW'. My reply when I hear that is "NO! I DON'T KNOW. IF I DID, I WOULDN'T HAVE TO BE WATCHING! Hint: Practice your dialogue so you don't need to say YA KNOW
Question about Epidemic sound. Does RUclips flag your video in "Restriction" section with copyright? If you check details it says:"The Content ID claim on your video doesn't affect your channel. This is not a copyright strike." So, they don't remove your video, but I think you'll get less paid, because partially your profit with go the the music creator. I'm asking because I used "free" tracks in some of my videos. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm new to it:)
This video was ideal! Easy to follow, straight to the point, perfect little FCPX tutorial. Question... When you change the speed of a clip like you showed here, does that have any effect on the timeline? For example, if I've set the project up as 4k25fps, and my footage is in 25fps, what will the speeding up or slowing down do? I think it'd be allrght if it was exactly doubled, as 50fps would fit on the 25fps timeline? But if you dragged clips to random percentages of the original speed,like shown here, what would that do and how would that affect the timeline overall? (Hope that makes sense?) Are you planning on doing any more FCPX videos? You mentioned a more in depth tutorial on colouring perhaps? Also, do you know what is the Apple programme named Motion? Is it Apple's version of After Effects (Like if FCPX is Apple's Premiere?) I have tried repeatedly but just don't get on with Premiere, & I am seemingly really enjoying FCPX so far, so I think Motion could be of interest going forward if I'm correct in thinking what it is. Cheers man. Really good & helpful little intro tutorial... Subbed! ;)
Just FYI epidemic sound you will have to pay thousands of you play a film at a festival.. Just went through a whole redo because they wanted to charge me over $3,000 and I still got flagged on RUclips
I have final cut pro 10.5.6 and I have a problem with my workspace. So, my insector window is not showing like yours. How can i change it? I’d be very happy if you help me. Thanks. Btw i am beginner. I’ll wait for your reply🙏
I'm not new to editing - have used Filmora and Resolve. But have not mustered the courage & time to learn FC Pro since I bought my Mac computer almost two years ago 🙁That needs to change! So, let's give this a try! I want the BASICs 🤓
is not better to import the whole folder that way all gets organized when imported? Saw a video where doing that save a lot of time searching for footage when big projects or with lots of images or conten for the video. is it easy to use the content draging all to the same event? shall I use several projects whitin the same library or create different library for each project? :(
So I own a windows pc. I have an old 10+ year old mac mini but its really not powerful. I really like what I see in this. I have used adobe premier and I have played a little with daVinci resolve.. I would say that having a 1 time fee would actually be much better then a subscription... I actually kinda want to get a new mac now. Any recommendations if I can scrape together a 1,500 budget over the next year?
WAW!! hello sir am Fansu from Africa, The Gambia what an incredible idea on the final cut pro Thanks for the explanation . basically iI did enjoy the video and I would love to bean extraordinary pro like you.
Hi, I'm a beginner and I'd like to know wether exporting the video in 24fps will affect the video quality and smoothness when I upload it or watch it back?
Final Cut Pro is impossible. Iv just spent 8 hours watching these videos and still have no idea. Not one of you guys simplifies it. You all start babbling on about folders and renaming and leaving files in place. My screen doesn’t even appear like yours. iMovie is so simple.
two questions: does final cut have text to speech? text to speech is a big part of my videos and it feels weird that clipchamp has text to speech but final cut does not 😂 i just got final cut a couple days ago and it is infinitely better than clipchamp (my goodness clipchamp is miserable haha) but am still learning the basics as you can likely tell haha and then second question: is there a way to easily resize video files within the frame so i can have like two or any number multiple (any number more than one clip haha) videos playing in the same video (after cropping) - this was probably the best feature that clipchamp had that i am having a hard time recreating in final cut 😔 i am an extreme noob, so please speak in noob-friendly terminology if someone responds to this comment, and if not - great video!
I have Logic Pro that is quite complete when it comes to stock plug-ins. At first glance FCP is a bit disappointing in this area. Am I missing something?
I can’t even make a folder. I don’t know how to put stuff in a folder. I had to manually drag my videos into a tiny box at the bottom and now it’s full of video and nothing can do from there.
I know that this question is completely random, but I wanted to ask someone how to do a certain effect in FCP X. I want to find a way that I would be able to picture in picture effect. More like you show a couple people standing there while a different angle of the same shot is just behind them and almost transparent, kind of like they used to do for school pictures for kids. Wanted to see if there was a way to create that background effect and also control the amount of fade or transparency? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
am i dumb? literally all im trying to do is delete the audio track (which is its own separate audio track that i imported) but when i select and delete the audio it deletes the clips too??????
Thank you for this video! I was using iMovie for my first RUclips video but I didn't love the limited text options so I downloaded Final Cut Pro with the 90-day trial. This tutorial is just what I needed🔥
I want to learn FCP x but, I need advice on what spec macbook I should get? It will be 14 or 16 ram i'm thinking 16 or 32. SSD I'm thinking 1 TB or 2 TB. I'm just doing beginner to med level videoi's from my iphone. Can I get alot of work done for a few years with 16 GB and 1 TB SSD or should I save for 32 GB and 2 TB SSD?
Thank you so much for this very informative beginner tutorial. I was getting tired of of fighting with basic/free video editing software that I wanted to have a tool that is full featured. With a full featured software of course brings with it a hefty learning curve, this video will help me a lot to get started. 🙏
Hi Vince! Thank you for this video, it was so clear and helpful for a beginner. It made me sure that final cut pro was the app that I needed right now, appreciate the hard work :)
Hello, ha jól sejtem magyar vagy :D Zseni a videó, én most váltok Mac-re és ezzel együtt vágok bele a Mac adta lehetőségekbe, Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro X, gondolkodom a tartalomgyártáson én is, de annál inkább a zenei tartalomgyártáson, terv van bőven. Frankó amit csinálsz, meg ahogyan, csak így tovább!
great video! thank you! i'm trying to decide between final cut and premier pro - and this video shows a really good sampling of final cut i haven't been able to find elsewhere

Agreed!
I agree!
I've literally been dreading video editing for years using premiere pro... Now I see what I've been missing. Thanks for this!
Seriously, I have Premier and it's a lot....I'm gonna try FC instead...

You forgot audio ducking
notes to self:
press i and o on the keyboard to select a certain part of a clip then drag to the bottom

100% agree with you
Where do you get music from ? Without copyright issues?
Damn these RUclips ads are buggin!
I use the word "thingy" when I get stuck.
Dude, well done. Appreciate this a lot and it instantly made me so much more comfortable with Final Cut, well done bro, very inspiring honestly haha

i am an extreme noob, so please speak in noob-friendly terminology if someone responds to this comment, and if not - great video!
Dude, you started off skipping a bunch of steps. WTF?
The ‘space’ you talk about on the left DOESNT EXIST on my screen
cant stand how youtubers never explain why they do things... theyre just echo chambers
why are my videos aranged on reverse like I have 17 may on bottom and 22 may on top & all the videos go in reverse order
I have Logic Pro that is quite complete when it comes to stock plug-ins. At first glance FCP is a bit disappointing in this area. Am I missing something?
Man, such a useful tutorial. Thanks a lot Vince...
Can you make a short video about how to easily match the videos to beats of the music? I have hard time snapping my videos to follow my music beat
This "organization" is a mess. Does it force the user to organize by date? How can anyone organize by client?
Is there a way to keyframe things like in premiere? Like what if you wanted to move some text from right to left
Excellent tutorial .Thanks Bro and God bless
This video would have been good if you didn't have music during the talking parts.
Drag and drop your folders-From where? On desktop or within FCP
Gotta say the background music is really annoying. It’s like a commercial.
do you know what I likes on your Video? you are fast, short explain, for dummies like me LOL.
Thanks for your video, I would like to go deeper in how to manage to export several project at night how can I do a render queue, thanks again
Cool videolesson, thank you a lot!
definitely not for beginners. I got so bogged down in the details, i couldn't get past the middle part
Thank you 🎉
Thanks, that is the best get it done for beginners, keep it up!

Seems like you could do the transparency method he showed in this video and just layer the clips.
HTH
I know this is a great tutorial . this app is so complicated after using filmora I feel Like this app needs so much patience
Can you tell me which software you are using for screen recording you are doing in this video?
If I’ve coloured grade one clip and have other clips I want to apply the same settings, is there a way to copy and paste to other clips?
How do I get the Final Cut Pro on my laptop? Should I download it from App Store?
am i dumb? literally all im trying to do is delete the audio track (which is its own separate audio track that i imported) but when i select and delete the audio it deletes the clips too??????
