final cut pro

Hi, I have taken some ProRes videos whilst on holiday but I want to convert them to H.265 but keep the metadata the same so they stay in place in the photos app. Is there a way of doing this? I tried Final Cut Pro but it changed he metadata to the date of the conversion.

Hi, I plan to film myself for an about video, edit in Final Cut Pro X and then use Captions AI (https://www.captions.ai/) to generate subtitles automatically. Before I pay for captions, I wish to consult you guys and see if there's already a plugin (free or not free) that does that in Final...

Hi, I'm making a time-lapse of Aurora, I've edited my images in Pixinsight and they are 16bit tiff files, Adobe RGB. I create a new project, 6000x4000 25fps and rec. 709. I set each frame to be 2s long. No matter what format I export to, it says "Colour profile: HD (1-1-1)". I believe...

Hi, why is there always a flicker/lagging in every video I film? The link shows a video I filmed with my iPhone 14 pro in cinematic 30fps. I set the project to 23fps, rendering Apple ProRes 422 HQ, 3840 x 2160. I exported as 23fps. I don't know if flicker/lagging is the best word to describe it...

So, if you film a video in any frame rate on an iPhone 13 Pro or higher, export it to 23 fps, it always has a flickering. If you film a video on a RED camera, it doesn't have the flickering. What is it that's on a RED camera that keeps it from flickering? Why does a RED camera look so smooth in...

Hi, is it possible to get professional film quality on iPhone? Let me explain. I'm not talking about the ISO, Depth and Aperture, or Frame rate. I know movies are filmed in 23fps. I'm talking about the way it looks. Like, every movie we see in theaters has a non-sharp look. Almost like they are...

Either using Ken Burns (the effect, not the man himself) on either iMovie or FCPX doesn't work very well if the photo has a vertical aspect ratio, or even close to square. The way it's programmed by default, it doesn't want to show anything outside of the photo itself, even if it looks...

I've got a situation with video shot by an iPhone 14 Pro Max in the Apple Camera app. I imported the clip (shot at 1080p) that is about an hour long onto my Mac and opened it in Quicktime. Around 10 minutes into the video, the clip auto-switches into slow-mo and stays there for the next 40...

Not literal tears, of course lol but I just did a time machine transfer and sat with both the 16" MBP and new 15" MBA M2. Both are completely spec'd out except for having 2TB SSD. I opened up Final Cut on both and loaded a project I was working on with R3D footage. The M2 rendered everything...

Got my first problem with Final Cut for iPad. I loaded videos from my Sony a9 and they show as broken. they play just fine in the Files app and show previews at the import window. File format shows as avc1. Any advice?

Because I use Macs, I'm thinking of Final CP but I'm afraid it will be hell when editing dance videos (my day job). These are usually multiple cam for the same inherent timeline/sequence, synchronised to 1/10s accuracy. So the final edit changes constantly between multiple cameras with the...

I am having a difficult time transferring/ migrating an ongoing FCPX project, from FCPX 10.0.8 to FCPX 10.4.1 I think I have either : 0A - performed the procedure incorrectly, iForgot something perhaps? 0B - It can’t be done, I’m making too far of a jump between versions of Final Cut Pro...

DaVinci Resolve coming to IPad. Is this a message to us users of Final Cut Pro that Apple was unable move the FCP to iOS and now we are witnessing slow but somehow expected takover of 3rd party developers over Pro editing software on Apples own platform? This is so sad. We all been waiting for...

This vector graphics video was made in after effects. Can this same type of video be made in apple motion? If so, is there a tutorial anywhere? I can't even figure out how to make vector graphic leaves or trees sway in apple motion but you can supposedly do the same stuff in after effects and...

How do I create something like this music video in Final Cut Pro? Thanks!

While the M1 Max MacBook Pro is remarkable in a lot of ways, including noiseless operation and a chassis that remains astonishingly cool even when performing demanding tasks, apps that open with lightning rapidity and blazingly quick rendering times, its suitability as a video editing...

Hi guys, I bought a 1TB Sandisk Extreme V2 that I haven't yet opened since it was on a minor sale ($165 CAD). Based on the full suite of measurements that I've seen in terms of read/write and sustained/sequential, this seems to be the best overall portable NVME SSD drive out there currently in...

Cinematic Mode seems like such a fantastic tool for filmmakers, but most filmmakers shoot in 4K. I imagine the file sizes will be large though, and they'd be even larger with 4K. I also sincerely hope Apple enables post-shoot focus-editing in iMovie and Final Cut Pro this fall.

Hi, I am a newbie to Apple Motion 5. Why is "Vertical Alignment" grayed out? How to enable it? Please help!

So… I didn’t it. I should have waited but… I got Apple Silicon Envy! I have ordered a MacBoon Pro w 16g and an Apple Silicon. I’ve also gotten Final Cut, Motion, and Logic… yes. I may put my Adobe Premiere days and/or Adobe After Effect days behind me. Not sure it’s a good idea… but all the...
