Ch 1: Taking a tour of the FCP X Interface
- -event library holds our media which is different from the project library which only holds projects
- - final cut events forlders on desktop need to be named "Final Cut Projects" or "Events" so that final cut can recognize them, if they aren't named correetly final cut won't be able to see them
- -shit+S turns on and off audio, for audio skimming
- -show and length in the clip viewer by sliding the time button on the bottom
- - You can split your viewer but selecting event viewer which allows you to see both the clips and the project view.
Ch 2: Creating and organizing events from scratch
- -From the drive that your media is in to right click and create a new folder for your clips
- -"copy files to Final Cut events Folder" copies media to folder without needing to have the medias original placement
- -importing the folders with keywords allows you to organize your media outside of final cut and then final cut uses your keywords and organization
Ch 3: Playing and Marking Clips in preparation for editing
- - help to take notes and put together an idea of how you might want your video to come together
- -also very helpful to organize clips into seperate sections you may want for how you want your video to come together
- -"JKL" J= reverse, K= pauses L=forward
- -"IO" I= eded shot is going to start (IN) O= wanted edited to end (OUT)
- -hold down K button and press K and L to move through the clip in slow motion
- -saving sound bit press f and favorite section
Ch 4: Understanding different types of editing tools
- Command N is create new project
- tell it what format, select custom and then choose media type
- When you have nothing else in your project you can just drag and drop or press W to make sure that the clip is what you want
- shift Z expands your project
- command z = undo
- where you have your play head if you drop in a clip it will put it in the middle
- Append editi will insert clip at the end of the sequence
