Fade Out to White in Final Cut Pro (FCP)

Could someone please show me how to do add a fade-to-white transition in Final Cut Pro (FCP)? (Instead of black, which is default.) I want to be able to do both: 1) fade to white; 2) and white to the picture. An example clip:
http://www.allfilters.com/campingfilters/gravityfed/platypus-gravityworks-filter
*Click on the "Videos" tab.
This clip ends with "fade to white." I want to apply the same effect in the beginning (white to movie).
Thank you in advance.

Effects > Video Transitions > Dissolve> Dip to Color Dissolve ... add it at the start and end
Double click the transition at the start (the Fade In) to open it in the Viewer and change the Color property to White. For extra credit you can change the Start value to 50%. Then double click the transition at the end (the Fade Out) to open it in the Viewer and again change the Color property to White. For extra credit change the End value to 50%.
Or another way would be to use Effects > Video Generators > Matte > Color Solid to create a "White" clip and then use that to dissolve into and out of your edit using a regular Cross Dissolve transition or by placing the Color Solid on another layer and the keyframing the opacity.
Hope it helps
Andy

  • How to fade background music out and fade in video clip audio Final Cut Pro X

    I am putting together videos and photos made during one of the trips, and I have background music running throughout the whole movie, but I want to fade this music during some parts of the video to hear the original speech/sounds of it, and then increase the volume of background music again. I know that in iMovie it is done in a few simple steps, and it almost automatically fades the music in/out. But I cannot find any similar options in Final Cut Pro X, how do you do it there? (I have 10.1.2 version)

    This is very easy to do.
    Press the letter R to switch to the Range tool. Drag the appropriate range in the audio clip. Press A to go back to the normal arrow tool. Drag the volume down. (Alternatively, instead of pressing R and then A, you can just hold down the letter R while you drag; then release and you are still using the arrow tool)

  • Emoji appear as black and white in Final Cut Pro X

    Using the Character Viewer in OSX Mavericks, I was able to put some colorful emoji into one of my films in FCPX. 
    I moved the project to a new computer and now the emoji will only show up in black and white!  I can't adjust the colors or the font settings, or anything to get the emoji to appear in color again!
    Same project, different computer, different emoji.  I have looked across my settings and preferences and I can't figure out why this is happening.  Anyone else have any suggestions or experiences here?
    Thanks,

    Yes - thanks, good question Tom.  I have Apple Color Emoji installed and active. I was just able to drag a full-color emoji into iMessages. 
    When I drag an emoji into a text-line in Final Cut Pro, I get the emoji looking regular in color in the inspector, but the emoji is grayscale in the previewer :-/  Here's a picture:

  • Blanking/blurring out specific visuals in final cut pro?

    I have a feeling that this is more suitable for the motion support forum, but is there a quick and easy way to blank out say a car number plate or logo on a t-shirt in final cut? The blurring doesn't have to be spot on, just enough for legal reasons.
    Thanks
    Alex

    thanks for that! Which folder do i drop the app into? It says on the link you provided to drop it into /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Plugins, but that path doesn't exist on my mac. I get to the Application Support folder and there isn't a folder for Final Cut Pro. I assume i just need to drop the Region Blur into the effects folder?
    Thanks

  • HD import footage out of sync in Final Cut Pro X.

    I am finally using my Final Cut Pro X and just got a Canon Vixia HF G10. I imported my first footage just a quick sample - only 25 seconds. The audio is not in sync with picture. In iMovie HD it plays perfectly but I need to use Final Cut Pro X. This picture also seems jumpier - not sure why. I have an importance project to get going on and need some help in fixing this problem.

    Workflow:
    Some of the AVI files he gave me were not accepted by MPEG Streamclip. He then burned the files to a dvd for me which I brough into MPEG Streamclip and exported to DV. This is how I got the exported file:
    I did not change anything...just hit "export to DV"
    For the files he gave me as AVI's (which he forgot to burn for me) I opened those in QT Pro and did save as to give me an MOV. When I tried to export it, it gave me the wrong size as there was no option to export 720x480 16:9....

  • How do I import HDR-AX2000 footage onto Final Cut Pro (FCP)?

    Does anybody know how to import footage from Sony HDR-AX2000 onto Final Cut Pro? Thank you so much for your help in advance.

    I figured it out! I'll post an answer here so if anybody needs help, they can follow the steps below:
    1. Connect camcorder to Mac using the USB cable that came with the camcorder and mount it on your computer desktop (Just follow the instructions on your camcorder screen).
    2. Copy the ENTIRE folder from the memory card to the desktop by dragging the folder to the desktop.
    3. Final Cut Pro > File > Log & Transfer (NOT Log & Capture)
    4. Click on "Add Volume" in the upper left corner of the window and select the "AVCHD" folder from the copied folder.
    5. Drag media to the window below or click on "Automatic Transfer."
    That's it. You should have all the imported clips in your Browser window now.

  • Final cut pro fcp 6.0.6 unexpected quit using OS 10.6.8

    Just upgraded to OS 10.6.8 and installed MacKeeper (big mistake) and FCP 6.0.8 quits during start up?  Trashed MacKeeper and re-installed everything but Final Cut Pro still quits during start up?  Everything else seems fine - any sugegstions about what is hapenning here?

    You should probably trash your FCP preferences. This application will make it easy:

  • Final Cut Pro (FCP) on MacBook Air. Possible?

    Is it possible to run Final Cut Pro (NOT FCP X) on a MacBook Air?
    I would like to be able to do basic editing, but mainly use it to dump footage on location to external harddrives.

    "Traveling editor" could imply dedicated offlining. Shane, do you think that could work with a low rez ProRes codec?
    I don't think anyone has tried to use an AirBook for FCP. Anyone bother to search?

  • Out of sync in Final Cut Pro 6

    I shot a musical audition in SD on a Panasonic 3CCD camera. I'm using Log and Capture in FCP6 on my MacBook Pro, 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM). I wanted this audition separate from others I've filmed, so I copied my previous sequence and deleted the video from it, then I brought in the new clip. After a few seconds, the audio and video go out of sync. I checked the sequence settings and they are the same as my original sequence. I tried ajusting the capture settings in Log and Capture Window (I chose DV NTSC 48K Anamorphic, which corresponds to my sequence settings, as best as I can tell (below):
    720 x 480 NTSC DV (3:2)
    NTSC- CCIR 601/DV (720 x 480) Anamorphic 16:9
    Lower (even)
    DV/DCPRO-NTSC
    Editing timebase 29.97
    48 Khz
    16-bit audio
    The footage isn't out of sync when I watch the being captured. I've tried several times, and yes, I zoomed in at the head of the clip to make sure I hadn't somehow bumped the audio tracks out of alignment!
    Can anyone tell me what is happening here?
    Thanks,
    Andy

    Oops. That's where I thought I was. Sorry.

  • General error and out of memory with Final Cut Pro 6

    I just upgraded to a Mac mini i7. What setting should I use to avoid these errors?

    So you were successful in getting FCS 2 apps installed in Mountain Lion?
    Are these messages you're getting now or ones that you have gotten in the past using FCP?
    Out of memory warnings often caused by still images that are not RGB or trying to use unsupported media.

  • Running out of Space with Final Cut Pro X 10.1.1

    I have a 1 TG external hard drive that I have been using for the FCPX Library.
    I check the properties and it is using 657.72GB of space. I have deleted all movies, files, music with on FCPX. I clearned the trash can and restarted my system and FCP Library file is still showing 657.72GB being used. I have a blank project FCP will not let me delete because it says you have to have at least one.
    Has anyone else run into this problem. I am running out of space to do my video's and this is really annoying.
    I really appreciate your help

    You deleted all your movies? How did you do that? And what do you mean by movies? Do you mean the clips that you imported into FCP? When you imported, was it from a camera's memory card or from your computer? And do the clips exist anywhere else on your computer?
    Sorry about all the questions, but just trying ensure that there are no misunderstandings due to terminology issues that might lead to problematic advice.

  • How Can I do an export that from Final Cut Pro 7 that is specific to these settings?

    Hi
    I am current trying to export out a movie from Final Cut Pro 7 but the settings that are required are very specific and I was going to try it through compressor as well but I wasn't sure if that would work either.
    Here are the settings:
    HD:
    1 Video CODEC                 XDCAMHD50
    2 Wrapper format           QuickTime Self-Contained
    3 Bit rate                              50 Mbit/s Constant Bit Rate (CBR)
    4 GOP                                   Long GOP
                                                 Closed GOP
    5 Time code                       Must include embedded time code. Start-timecode: 10:00:00:00
    6 Movie version               UK Home Video Version
    7 Delivery time                 As per contract. Supplier to specify filename, delivery format and estimated time of arrival via email at least 60 days before                                                           transmission unless otherwise specified in contract. This should be accompanied by an IMDB link.
    1 HD video format           720 line progressively scanned (720p) @ 50Hz (25 FPS)
                                              1080 line interlace scanned (1080i) @ 50Hz (25 FPS)
    2 Resolution                      1280 x 720
                                               1920 x 1080
    3 Aspect ratio                    Content should be 16:9, however 4:3 will be accepted on exception (such as for older movies shot in 4:3)
    4 Graphics                           Must be within 16:9 safe graphics area (EBU R95-2000)
    5 Chroma format              4:2:2
    1 HD audio format           24 bits/sample 48 kHz sampling rate
    2 Track layout                    Track 1 – 2.0 Stereo L mono
                                                Track 2 – 2.0 Stereo R mono
                                                Track 3 – L
                                                Track 4 – R
                                                Track 5 – C
                                                Track 6 - Low frequency effects LFE
                                                Track 7 – L Surround
                                                Track 8 – R Surround

    First of all, what are your sequence settings?  Looks like they want stereo AND dolby 5.1 audio tracks embedded in the quicktime (I've delivered a few films like this).  Do you have a surround sound mix?  
    You will almost always have more options and control in compressor over fcp so that's the way I'd go, but not sure compressor will give you the ability to match these specs. 
    Do you understand about safe zones for graphics?  If not, post back.
    I don't see any option to set the GOP in xdcam in compressor.  This may be built in to the xdcam format.
    I don't see any option for 720 xdcam hd in compressor. 
    There are many other tools available for this kind of work, but they may be out of your price range.  You might want to just find a facility with experience in deliverying this sort of thing.

  • Final Cut Pro Express (X)

    Hi,
    Do i have to have an earlier version for final cut pro x is it just an update or can i purchase this never having had final cut before?
    many thanks
    Crispian

    Final Cut Express, which I referred to as FCE, is completely different.
    FCE was a cheaper, cut down version of the old Final Cut Pro (FCP).
    They were both discontinued on June 21st. 2011 when the completely new Final Cut Pro X  (FCP X) was introduced.
    There are no upgrades etc. to FCP X and it costs $299 or the equivalent from the AppStore from which you download it.
    It is not available on DVDs etc. as the old versions were.
    Before buying it you should test it out by downloading the free 30 day trial to see if it suits you.
