thanks for such a valuable video , by the way could u tell me why I can't use range to select the portion of a clip before import ? I tried to range select a portion to import but as soon as I select the clip the whole clip shows a yellow boundry around it and when I click away the boundary turns gray , I can't use range tool and its very frustrating , thanks
Dude, you’re the king of Final Cut Pro lol Everybody else just talked and never really explain it but every video that I watch of yours, I’m learning crazy right thanks for the video
Instead of GHB I set a macro in BetterTouchTool so CMD+click is blade, SHIFT+click is trim start, and OPT+click is trim end. That way with the skimming, I can just keep my hand in one place (where it naturally rests for me) and only have to use mouse clicks when I'm cutting up my edits. I do talking head stuff normally so I turn off the macros when I'm done so I don't accidentally click when I'm selecting or duplicating
Thank you for the Trim Start and End shortcut suggestions! Being fairly new I just kept going up to the Trim menu and doing it there. It was driving me crazy! Earned a new subscriber for that one!
even though I don't need the crazy edits you do in the video, knowing you put in that much effort made it easy to tell if the video was worth watching or not. Glad I did, good tips for the software thanks
My guy Dylan always bringing the heat 🔥 I’ve been using [ and ] for trimming clips. Makes so much more sense to keep shortcut closer to center of keyboard, so my hands don’t have to travel and I don’t have to look down at keyboard. Gold!
Arghhhhhhh and to think I previewed the video nearly 5 times. I guess I just assumed I got the text right there. Thanks for letting me know. For reference, it should say 'RENDER SELECTION'.
Thanks! So I was talking about my color grading course for FCP and for Color Finale 2 Pro which is 65% off. If you enroll, you also get 50% off the Color Finale 2 Pro plugin. That's a discount only students of the course have 🤘🏼 www.fcpcolorgradingmasterclass.com
Thank you Dylan for another great tutorial. Do you have any suggestion for plugin stop working? That happens to me once in a while and I have to relaunch FCP. Any idea?
Great video! G H B seems so cramped to me. I use Q W E (Left, Middle[blade], Right) which lets me rest my thumb on the space bar to play and pause. It's personal preference of course but I feel this works so well! It also means my index finger rests on R so I'm figuring out what to assign that to now.
Ah interesting! The reason I like GHB is because my two pointer fingers always rest on F and J next to them. So these keys are always visible. I never need to look down. To each his own!
I was interested in purchasing your course as I am a content creator also.... does this course also help with color grading LOG drone footage? Great video by the way!!!
Hey Ray! I get them from many places...Artlist, RUclips, and a bunch of other places to be honest. I have a collection at this point. And it doesn't take me long for the tutorials because I have a library with the exact sfx I like to use. For other projects, sound design definitely takes a bit longer. Have you checked out some of my sound design tutorials? I think you'd really like those. Here are two: ruclips.net/video/wYVH4W73wSk/видео.html ruclips.net/video/-N5CYfK4HIw/видео.html
😂 Great idea. I was actually considering having myself laying down in what looks like a chalk outline with the FCP logo sticking out of my body but I figured this thumbnail would be more effective. It's doing okay, not stellar though.
This video should have 1000's of more likes, Totally awesome. The GHB key board set up is worth thousands of likes alone. I do have a question though, I do not use Proxies at all M2 Studio Max here and never really need to but I do see in my Library I have a folder called Render Files and in that folder is another folder High Quality Files which get's HUGE and takes up a ton of space. When saving my library as a back up I erase all those files but what are they and can I erase them during A Project or will it screw up something? That folder get's huge during a project. Thanks for any information about that. I am in the middle of HUGE project and do not want to mess anything up. But would love to save some space if I can while still working on it...? Thank you! I imagine if I erase it, every time I open a timeline I have been working on it will have to render that timeline again before I can keep working on it?
Thanks so much man 👊🏼 So you can delete those with no issues. You likely have background rendering turned on which I highly suggest turning off. Press command and comma to bring up your preferences and it’s in the editing tab I think. You can erase all the render files you currently have too.
@@dylanjohndickerson Thanks, You are the fastest ever to respond..LOL Yes I saw you said turn that off in settings, I thought I had it off. But with that off, That means I have to continually render the timeline manually? I have like 30 projects currently in one library and wondering if also every time I open them it will have to render again if I delete those files? Hope that makes sense Thanks man
@@ekphotography You don't really need to have your timeline rendered. Unless you're really having trouble with playback, but in that instance, I'd just render that specific clip that's causing issues by selecting it and pressing Control R. Your project renders when it exports so it's not really needed.
The video renders when you export. Unless your computer can't keep up, there's no reason to have rendering turned on. And if your computer can't keep up, sometimes it's just a clip or two that causes issues and if that's the case, 'control R' renders them quickly. If your computer still can't keep up, it's better to just transcode your media to proxy media. Notice how when you exit out of Final Cut and open your project again, your timeline has to be re-rendered. Not sure why that is exactly but it's silly to have files always being rendered, slowing down your machine and taking up useless space on your hard drive. This is why you might as well transcode to proxy. One time transcode and you should be able to edit/playback smoothly. Whereas with background rendering turned on, every time you make an adjustment or close out of FCP and come back in, those files will be rendered again. Unless you know how to delete your render files, I bet your libraries are enormous, Sennadeep.
Another tip is to edit in a lower resolution. If you’ve a 4k project set the project to 1080p whilst you’re working on it and change to 4k when you’re ready to render and export.

Really excellent !!
Thanx a lot for all your tutorials.
😉👍🏼🐶
It's my pleasure! Thanks so much for the support 👊🏼
I consider myself an expert in FCP and theres always 1 thing I can pull from your videos. Thanks man!
Well sweet! Glad you found them helpful 😊 thanks so much for watching.
Very helpful tips! Especially the “used media ranges” tip. Going to start using that asap!
Glad it was helpful Will!
damn Dylan.. the position playhead at the end was driving me nuts for 6 years now..thanks !

Happy to hear you enjoyed it 😊 thanks for watching.
I use the GHB trio trick all the time. EPIC time saver.
That it is brother!
Can confirm Dylan’s colour grading course is awesome
Thanks so much 🥹
My guy Dylan always bringing the heat 🔥 I’ve been using [ and ] for trimming clips. Makes so much more sense to keep shortcut closer to center of keyboard, so my hands don’t have to travel and I don’t have to look down at keyboard. Gold!
Ya brotha highly suggest it! I used to suggest [ and ] but someone told me to try G and H and I haven't looked back. Thanks for the support 👊🏼
The Trio keyboard shortcuts have already been a HUGE help on my very next video that I'm editing. Thank you!
So stoked to hear that! 😄
Great tips! Thanks! 🙌✨
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Great video, i love how you always put so much effort in one single video
It definitely takes a lot of effort but I'm happy to do it 🤙🏼
at 1:56 you show Open Preferences and say Control R. The Open Preferences text was left over fro the previous short cut, Command comma.
Arghhhhhhh and to think I previewed the video nearly 5 times. I guess I just assumed I got the text right there. Thanks for letting me know. For reference, it should say 'RENDER SELECTION'.
These shortcuts are life.
I got you, homie 👊🏼
Excellent - thankyou for making these and being genuinely enthusiastic to help the rest of us.
It's my pleasure! Glad you found it helpful 😊 thanks so much for watching.
Another great video with plenty of helpful advice, Thanks Brah. Love these
No problem brotha 🤙🏼 thanks a ton for watching and commenting.
Great video. Where do I find the 65% reduced price for Color Finale Pro that you mentioned? I don’t see it on their website.

Hi Dylan, that's an excellent video... So relevant and just in time for me. A great summary of the major performance issues involved in editing.
Stoked to hear that! Thanks for letting me know 😊
Another nice tut. Bout to sign up for your color grading course.
New sub!!!!!!
Sweet! Thanks so much. I know you'll love it 👊🏼
Thank you Dylan for another great tutorial. Do you have any suggestion for plugin stop working? That happens to me once in a while and I have to relaunch FCP. Any idea?
Thanks so much! Well it depends on the developer. I'd reach out to whoever you bought it from and they should help out.
'Used media ranges' best tip for me, thx soooo much 😎🤙
You're welcome! Thanks so much for watching 👊

Priceless thumbnail. The only thing that would make it better would be to put the FCP icon behind a Jason mask. ;)
😂 Great idea. I was actually considering having myself laying down in what looks like a chalk outline with the FCP logo sticking out of my body but I figured this thumbnail would be more effective. It's doing okay, not stellar though.

You should be arrested for this content because you are KILLING it, my friend.
😂 thanks so much dude!
what if you shot in 60fps and want to slow it donw. Wouldnt using same project as frame rate impossible to do so>
or should i just edit in the 60fps timline and when i want to export just change to 30fps?
No no keep it 30fps or 24fps. Since you're slowing it down, you're conforming to that frame rate anyways. @@adamkurtz1869

Turning off automatic rendering is stupid... it takes a lot longer to render manually...
