LOVE the double-click for markers tip to add and then open marker dialogue box. Great idea. I used to drag the b/w silhouette placeholders over the clips to 'remind' me to add b-roll later on. The marker way you suggest is much faster, cleaner, and really stands out at a quick glace of your timeline. Nice! 👍
Tip Number 6! Brilliant. I have lost count of how many times I've used the same bit of video more than once on the timeline and then, worse, don't notice the duplicated clip until it is toooooo late. Here in Scotland we call this kind of mistake as 'finger trouble.' All other tips excellent. Scotland is looking forward to hearing from you next week. Ah hiner yoo'll be havin' a stoatin weekend an' th' win' isnae blowin' up yer kilt.
I wish! I just recently made a tutorial on the channel where I recreated the LOKI title inside of Apple Motion. I was just overviewing that tutorial when I filmed this one haha
Just some additional info about audio/video only mode - there are several hidden shortcuts in FCP - like Connect Audio Only or Overwrite Video Only Backtime. It more useful than press Shift-2 before then press Q or D )))
Hey Dylan, great video as per usual, you always kill it with making things understandable but without speaking like you are teaching a child, there was one question I had for either you or your followers - How come when I click on a video from my library section it instantly puts range brackets on it as if I only wanted part of the video and then I have to stretch either side before dragging it onto my timeline - Any suggestions would be much appreciated
This is something that happens a lot to me as well! There are a couple reasons why this can happen. But sometimes I think it just defies logic and does it anyway 😂 The first reason is I usually just accidentally click and drag when selecting a clip. The second reason being it’s a photo. All photos in FCP will naturally only select a part of the clip. Now I believe you can undo the selection by click on the clip and pressing U? I have to check. It’s just a muscle memory thing for me 😬 You can also make multiple selections on the same clip by pressing CMD before you click and drag on it. Hoping something here helps!
@@TheFinalCutBroThanks Dylan, yes its a pain, the way I work around it for pictures is just use X to reset all the ranges and have the picture setting as 10 seconds, just need a way to use that work around for videos, but im going to watch some more of your videos as I am sure you must have covered something like that in the past - Thanks
very good all the tips This channel should have existed when I started on fcpx many years ago hahahahaah If it helps me a lot today, I imagine in the past how much faster I would have learned. I myself don't know how to change the colors between videos with two or three different cameras on the timeline.... In a future video, please include this tip too. Thank you very much for another excellent quality video. you are very good with your tips.
Dylan - Do you know of an upper third title package for FCP - I want my tagline on reels and all - I am also planning on purchasing the vertical package you have, but I want to find out if I can find and upper title [small for just my youtube name to run throughout the video - examples are on my channel - - if you don't have time that is cool... Thanks for all the videos. They are a great help.
Yes it can! I’m having trouble remembering where it is off the top of my head. But I think it might be when you select a video clip, then in the left inspector, underneath the transform properties at the very bottom. I believe it’s under the retime settings. I’m not in a place I can check right now, but it’s definitely inside of Motion!
I'm just starting with Motion and I have a question. I've been doing some trendy smooth zoom outs with bezier curve and it drove me nuts that I had to do it separately for X, Y, Z axises of the Scale parameter and try to align them manually. I'm sure there has to be a way to change them all at once but I couldn't figure it out. I'll appreciate if anyone can help me out with this. To be more specific: I'm adding a Scale keyframe at the beginning and at the end, I change the starting value, and then in the Keyframe Editor I select a keyframe and make it Bezier and play with handles. I can't select all axises at once, only one of them, which is so illogical. Maybe I'm missing something.
Totally know what you mean! This frustrates me all the time. To select them all, you’ll need to click and drag to create a selection box over the keyframes. Then make sure you don’t press shift when you first select them, otherwise it goes back to only selecting one. Definitely not intuitive at all. This video should hopefully help when working with keyframes ruclips.net/video/VX5JxrRRyto/видео.htmlsi=MYOepquiBiOHje5A

The thumbnail wins the internet for today!
That thumbnail will haunt my dreams
No joke. Best thumbnail. ROFL
Dylan, you always come with the heat.
Excellent! Thx
Great tips Dylan! You expanded my understanding of some I used, but didn't use them to the full extent I could have been!
the number one thing i wish somebody told me when i first started editing is what an adjustment layer is
Ooh good one! Definitely gonna need to add that to the next list I make haha
For #2, I also have a keyboard shortcut for ‘set volume to zero’
Thank you 🙏🏾
Love it❤
I’m going to save this to my watch later and rewatch it over and over and over. Your retention graph will thank me! Fab content as usual.
Retention to the MOON!

The only thing I wish they’d add is the ability to set markers to more than just a few colors!
Definitely. @@TheFinalCutBro
i’ve been using fcp for about four years now, and most of these i didn’t know 😅🤯
Great tips, Thank you

Hey Dylan,
Saw Loki there. Were you the one who edited Loki episodes?
Btw, cool tuts!
I wish! I just recently made a tutorial on the channel where I recreated the LOKI title inside of Apple Motion. I was just overviewing that tutorial when I filmed this one haha
Dylan you are awesome 🤩 always appreciate your insight 🙌
Amazing thumbnail! And great tips!
This was such a helpful video!! Thanks!!

3:12 That certainly was a "beautiful green marker", Dylan 😊Great video for anybody using FCP!

Always helpfull, thanks for showing!

I can’t wait to get started on FCP. Thanks for all the videos!
Will throw a comment in here for support of the video - excellent work as always Dylan.
Not just for beginners but always a good reminder and check list ! Thanks Dylan 🎉 party on…

Nice !! Dylan can you make a vidéo of all the tools you use to produce your beautifuls videos ? Thanks
Another extremely helpful video. Thanks so much!🙏
Greatest Thumbnail EVER!!!
I’m a beginner using FCP; I have sooooo much to learn. This was such a helpful and information packed video! Thanks so much!😊
I HAD to click, based on the thumbnail alone....
%100 agreed 👍

Is that optical flow thing something that can be done in Motion?
Yes it can! I’m having trouble remembering where it is off the top of my head.

@@TheFinalCutBro Thank you very much, Bro!
Does this work for the iPad version…?
Unfortunately most of these don’t apply to iPad just yet. Hopefully Apple releases a lot more of these features for the iPad version!
@@TheFinalCutBro thanks, now if only you could save as an Alpha channel…
Awesome & Thanks :)
Hey Dylan when I click on Download Additional Content it simply takes me to a screen that says my MacOS is up to date
Then you probably already have the additional content! It downloads it through the MacOS update tool.
That thumbnail of you is you in your final form.
Only a matter of time now
Learn FCP with FCB !!
what a thumbnail
the thumbnail 🤣🤣🤣🤣
lmao that thumbnail dylan 🤣
That was easy

Final Cut Pro sucks. Bad. I buy a Mac Studio and do one project and it fills the whole hard drive up for a 30-minute video. What kind of shit is that?
