That Command signal that keeps coming up, what does it do?

Eric, this is going to sound stupid, but I'm a relatively new mac user and wondered how the hell you and the other tutorial creators record on your screen, and zoom into focus on particular areas of focus. Can ya help me out with that? :)

[crosscreek3]

Re: the "disappearing hands on the clock" the answer requires a bit more time than your videos would allow. A call to Apple Support involved a "2d/3d" explanation....and a panning out process. It seems that the face of the clock and the hands on the clock are two separate layers.

The same thing happened to me as it did to you. In your third camera what happened to the hands on the clock? They disappeared. Same with me at a certain frame all of a sudden the clock hands disappeared. Why?

The answer (for me) is to have the Motion app open and follow each step of the tutorial as it goes along. Just go back and forth (at every step) and do what Eric is doing.

There is no way (unless you are a geek) to memorize these tutorials and then open the application and mimic the process. Not gonna happen!

But, if you are a total idiot like me and you follow the process as I said: you can't miss!

Nice Video but i think it need more effects.. you can get nice video effects plugins and addons from aries-films file section. Just google for Aries-Films man.. pc

[dapayne]

Is this program basic with most programs, I'm new at videoing at this level, and what you've provided here I understand totally.

brilliant tutorial!

thx

[fleischtube]

well done sir. thanx

[heireagle]

if you export it like that does it have a transparent background so if you used it in FC you would have to luma key it?

[gigaflex]

export it in animation millions of colors+ (with alpha channel) and you dont have to do any keying in fc

[channelsfather]

fucking Gooooddddddddddddddddd man so we only need 1 camera and we can make the rest on Motion nice man

[jteknet]

Not exactly. We live in a 3D world. This is 2D graphics. Someone correct me if I'm wrong - but wouldn't you need a whole different perspective of the same scene to do this with real life footage?

[tyguywow]

ya...unless you use a green screen and do a 360 pan around the person assuming the green screen is 360 degrees, you could choose any angle you wanted.

i cant find the first four tut on camera's :(

[valdensevideos]

[FLCProductions]

I love theese old tutorilas in HD

[gooddrderl]

emeek, needing some advice, is it worth getting final cut express or should i go all out with studio 2?

[AppleShakeGuru]

big price difference. 1200 vs 200. if you can afford it, lol, get FCS2 man.

[gooddrderl]

yeah i'd be able to afford it in a few months (in aus its 1,700 so thats like the same now that our dollars worth shit all)

other thing, i read on the final cut page on the apple website that all the tutorials take up a shit load of room, i take that u can use custom installer and choose not to install that\

(ps fking brilliant tutorials and mac v pc, thinking of starting myself)
