Ok here's my problem I have final cut pro 6.06 but not motion, colour etc... I really want motion 4 (with motion 5 I can't collaborate with FCP 6) but just dont know where to get it. Maybe on Mac app store but I've got OSX 10.5.8 and can't get app store. HELP! Also you can download a 50-point garbage matte add-on for FCP, just google it
How easy would this effect be achieved in after effects? I'm thinking and I don't think it would be too hard. but when you're selecting the drop shadow wouldn't it be easiest to go to the frame where you got the "future" subject from and match the shadow there? just an idea
@RohMakFilms Maybe you could use an 8 point garbage matte. You wouldn't be able to do many complex shapes, but practice and stuff, maybe you'll figure something out.
@xomusicxomegileyxo Final Cut Pro X only supports 7 points as much as I know, which means that masking out a person isn't that easy in Final Cut Pro X... Anyway you could save some money for Motion 5, it is veeeery cheap! :)
Hey, Zack and Zack's fans. I am a new film student and I don't have much cash right now. What is a good way to get my hands on a relatively decent camera that is affordable?
@ThatsTechie I think the most I would like to spend is $500. That is the VERY MOST I can afford at all, but I haven't even gotten my paycheck yet, so I can't buy jack squat right now.
Hey my browser (Chrome) says your website could have malicious malware if I enter it. Something with aegispayments or what not. Just thought I'd let you know what some might see when they try to enter your website.
I'm trying to recreate this on Motion. I duplicated the clip, masked the duplicated clip, put a feather on, but when I tried to make the frame stay in the Properties Tab, the clip kept going. It looked like The clip was playing behind it, but I could only see through where my mask was. Any suggestions?
I think, it would be cool if you'd walk in front of this frame not just behind it, 'cause now it just looks like you have a frame in front of all what's happening in the video.
@EpicGeekFailTV No problem! Always happy to help! ;) Just so that you know it, is a feature in Motion, which means you can customise your own ones, with your wanted colors and keyframes... :)
Im not sure what im doing wrong hahaha but theres something. tonight im going to go more in depth with this and im gonna figure out what i did. you help me alot. I take notes from some of your videos for reference for me... you help A LOT
That great with a camera on a tripod but a lot more difficult when your using a handheld cam as MGG did. Then you have to adjust the freeze frame mask. Good work all the same.
Dude this was too awesome. Thanks man! btw, do you know freddiew? he's a youtuber with some super cool videos. and he does some behind the scenes videos as well but not as specific as the finalcutking's! btw if you have facebook, can you go to the Kohl's page? And vote for Whitney High School in Cerritos California? We need to be at least place 20 to win $500,000 for the school. that way we can have enough $ to build our $6 million multimedia center with it. It's gonna be for postproduction.
hey, great video! Remember that tutorial you did on explosions? Well I took your teachings and created my own video based from your basics. Check out my channel, it's my main video, titled "Action Sequence" Please let me know what you think. ^_^
i have final cut studio 7 but i am a noob, i got it as a thank you gift from a friend for helping her out and i wanted to ask, to get this effect onto my short film, would i edit the entire thing first and then send it all to motion or would i just send the clip that i wanted the effect on to motion and then send it back to final cut?
I told my dad(before you did this video) if you could do this effect this way and he said no because, as you see in MGM's video the camera is moving and the photo is still in the same place,so you have to edit this effect in after effects or Apple Shake frame by frame.
@abeerhkhan you can do the same exact thing in AE. You find the spot you want to do the freeze frame. Then mask it out the same way, make a freeze frame, and synchronize it all together. You can do the same exact thing. You could also motion track it if the camera isn't on a tripod, but that's more complicated. :)
Love you king your awesome!!!!!!
