Fernando L. Final Cut Express 4. My first FX

[supernalyd3]

May you please tell me how you did the holowatch effect???!?!?!?!?!?

[terminatorfresh666]

That's so cool! Great job!

[alanpro18]

I lol'd at the lightsaber. Looks like a crayola. lol. Nice effects!

[TheNitrocars]

please tell me how u did the first effect, how did u get that thing pop out of your watch? and how do u animate something like that?

[RichterTV]

the watch was by far the coolest

[bleiepro]

Please make a how to for the watch thing

[meanmrmusic28]

How did you animate the hologram on your watch?

[Econnolly82]

i am amazed by your holographic watch thing...i have no clue how i would do that...please make a tutorial for it

[karnivor66]

@360GamerXlX OK It is really not that difficult. You just need a green screen video. Get rid of the green color. Insert it on another video and play with the options. I´m sure you´ll figure it out.

[shempone]

@karnivor66

I know green screens, but whats a green screen video?

[OliveStudios100]

How do You doe the holo watch and jump out

[samisablo]

como haces el holowatch

[karnivor66]

@samisablo Tomas una animación que tenga fondo verde. (green screen) y se lo haces transparente. Esta se puede deformar y poner el sonido que quieras. No es difícil, sólo tienes que jugar con las opciones de tu pestaña 'create effects'.

[Cooldude112233445570]

HOW DID YOU DO THE WATCH EFFECT?

And nicde job

[TheShiftingStudios]

how did you motion track it to your arm?

[karnivor66]

@TheShiftingStudios Good question. Unfortunately there is no automatic motion tracking in FCE4. You have to do it by manually. That´s why it doesn´t match perfectly with the watch, but be patient and do it step by step. Frame by frame.

[XCircaX]

i think your lightsaber needs some work heh

[karnivor66]

@XCircaX oh Yes. !" It was my very first try LOL

[mcgeejosh16]

how did you make the holowatch can you tell me please or make a tut or something

[ItsAMetal]

how did u do the lightsaber?

and the watch thing?

[DDDJ591]

where do u get these effects like the energy ball and stuff

[karnivor66]

@DDDJ591 ok open your effects library then go to: EFFECTS, VIDEO GENERATORS, LENS FLARE and play with the options.

[DDDJ591]

@karnivor66 what about like the watch at the begining

[karnivor66]

[axelle1lover]

nice how did u do the first one i have all the sofwares u have please explain u rock for ur first time

[catlange]

hola, How tdo you make the background of your energy ball transparent???? (so we can see the bookcase and your hand). I've been looking for the way to do that for ages! It drives me mad!

[karnivor66]

All you have to do is drag and drop the FLARE effect. The background will be transparent by default. And don´t forget to play with the opacity. It may help-

[MyJr29]

can you make a tut for the watch thing?

[karnivor66]

Yep. I´m working on a good tutorial. Be patient.

[leocuri10]

tan buenos los efectos, interesantes

[karnivor66]

Muchas gracias. Te puedo resolver dudas básicas.

[controlsur]

@karnivor66

hola, esta muy bueno, como puedo conseguir un manual en español del programa, quiero hacer algunas cosas, como poner sepia y resalar un color rojo por ej, que aparezca una bola asi como haces, pero nada, me pierdo, desda ya gracias, saludos desde españa

[karnivor66]

Para poner sepia te vas a la pestaña de EFFECTS, VIDEO FILTERS, IMAGE CONTROL, SEPIA. Listo, tu video es sepia.

Para la bola de energía: EFFECTS, VIDEO GENERATORS, LENS FLARE. Listo tienes una bola de energía en tu video.

Juega con las herramientas.

[controlsur]

@karnivor66

muchisimas gracias, ya estoy en marcha cin los experimentos

un saludo

[MrRanguli]

how did you get the beginning watch thing? Is it built into final cut express, or is it online? thanks

[karnivor66]

Itis online, but you could make your own on Photoshop, Corel RAVE, Maya 3D etc etc

[98jeanpaul]

hey um r u puerto rican i am. Yo soy pr  y tu

[karnivor66]

De México. Saludos.

[EPS5000]

Where did you get the special effect for the light saber?

[karnivor66]

Nowhere. You can do it from scratch. All you need is a green line, or a red line made on Photoshop or Paint, Then place it right on your video. And animate it frame by frame. Bingo there´s a lightsaber

[ashare06]

NO WAY AMIGO!...U did this all on Final Cut?...NICE.

[karnivor66]

Oh thanks, I've been working on my light saber technique

[taneli2288]

could you make a tutorial?

[simonfilm]

Me encantaron los efectos, sobre todo el del reloj. ¿Sabes hacer el efecto de agua como el que sale en Minority report? Un saludo y enhorabuena por tu vídeo.

[karnivor66]

Gracias. Voy a ingeniármelas para ver la manera más sencilla de hacerlo.

[MrStudiosLC]

watch?v=V36EKstKFq8

veja esse aqui

[payanonyc]

hermano como ases el efecto de la mano?

[karnivor66]

Necesitas una animación con fondo verde o azul. Con la herramienta 'Chroma key' le quitas el fondo y te queda la animación con el fondo transparente. Ya sólo la ubicas en donde quieres que vaya con la herramienta 'position'. El audio se lo puedes pegar aparte. Una animación sencilla la puedes hacer con Photoshop, Corel RAVE, etc.

[dermagicmax]

infact your energy ball is meant to be a light strobe or the flash of a flashlight...

[heosdikal]

programa increible!! fue mi cumpleaños ahce poco y he ahorrado lo suficiente para comprarmelo !! jejeje

[karnivor66]

Primero brincas, y cuando estés en lo más alto de tu brinco le cortas y le pegas otra escena donde no estés tú, sólo el fondo. Ahí vas a insertarle una foto tuya (recortada en photoshop o alguno similar). Ya sólo tienes que agregarle un desplazamiento para que parezca que te fuiste volando. Espero te sirva la breve lección.

[freefallproductions3]

ow did u make this in final cut express 4?

[nanomalias]

hola super bueno el video me podrias decir como hacer mas omenos estos efectos en algun tutorial

[karnivor66]

Claro !" El más fácil es la bola de energía. Sólo tienes que abrir tu FCE4, Insetar un video que simule que lanzas una bola de energía, y en la pestaña de Efects-Render hay una que dice: 'Flare' La arrastras a tu video y luego abres la opción de 'Basic motion' para darle el recorrido que quieres. Haz lo mismo para una espada láser. Pero tienes que tener una barrita de color, Dibujada por tí o bájala de internet. Si tienes problemas me avisas.

[karnivor66]

ok thnx. First, you need a still image of yourself jumping in mid air and crop it on any photo software, then paste it right at the moment you´re jumping off the floor. Then move it up, and there´s a Superman-fx. Give a shot and if you still have troubles please let me know.

[MacEdits]

ok thank you so much. i will try it later and tell you how it worked out...

[SaintProductions8]

how did you do all the effect please make a tutorial

[zanner11030]

how did u do that

[dhoh4]

IM thinking about getting final cut Express 4 and do you think it is worth the money...?

[karnivor66]

It´s worth it. It´s easy once you practice for a couple of days. Lots of tutorials here. I use it for Home, but you could earn some money...who knows.

[BoldBadWolf]

I really liked the watch. How hard was that? Is there any tutorials on it? By the way, good job, keep it up.

[karnivor66]

Tnaks. To do the Holowatch just make sure you have a BLACK BACKGROUND VIDEO. Go to the options and select 'COMPOSITE' then select 'lighten'. Reduce the opacity to make the holographic effect. And there you go.

Give a try. If you still can´t do it please ask a specific doubt, but it is really easy.

[thiera07]

very great film!

How do you do this with the watch?

Only with Final Cut?

[karnivor66]

Well you may need another animating program to do the little video in the hologram. But could be easier with a still image. If you have that, the rest is very very simple.

[thiera07]

what animating program do you use for the little video in the hologram? I think, with still an image the effect doesn´t look boring ;).

[karnivor66]

I use COREL RAVE, PHOTOSHOP AND MAYA for some animations. I suggest Corel rave and Photoshop for begginers.Tnhx

[radelchio]

That's maybe not great for people who aren't busy with this program. But for me it was awesome. I'm still practicing and getting there. Keep on the good work.

Peace.

[karnivor66]

Hey thanx. Maybe I could help you with some tips"

[zackes1990]

Hey maybe you could help me, how did you do the first part with the watch? that was pretty cool.

[karnivor66]

I´ve answer you doubt up here, If you still have any difficulty please let me know. I´ll preppare a tutorial if you want, but it is really simple.Thanks
