How do you get more free effects to use in Final Cut pro x?

I am looking for a safe free place to download more effects that I can use on my videos in Final cut pro x that include effects that aren't just limited to the colors of the video. I also hope that the place will have clear instructions on how to download them onto final cut pro x. If you know of a place like this let me know, thank you!

fcp.co is my go to place for transitions and effects. Most are between $20 and $50 and because they have many effect in each are well worth the money spent. My favorites are Pixel Studios and Lucas, both purchased through FX Factory. Look at the examples and demo videos before you buy.
Good luck!

  • How do you find missing titles, effects, and generators in final cut pro x?

    Actually, that's only one of two questions...
    ONE
    When I attempt to export a movie, uncompressed, not through Compressor and not sharing to an Apple device, I get an error saying my Project has "missing or offline titles, effects, or generators."
    There is a little yellow warning triangle next to the project name.
    But there are no little yellow warning triangles next to anything in my libraries, and everything plays through in the Timeline.
    Before exporting, how can I identify the supposedly missing elements???
    TWO
    After attempting to export the same movie via the Share item to an iiPhone, i received a Quicktime Error: -50.
    Interpretation, please?

    I recently added a new plugin (mObject) and was experimenting with it. I decided to create a "temporary" library on my root drive since it's the fastest in my setup. I prefer to have major files like the library at the top level of my drives, and for the internal drive, that's outside my User folder. That's when all the trouble started.  I would manually start a render and FCPX would not stop... would not completely render the clip... I would get "dashed" orange render lines over the clip. The only way to stop the rendering was to add something new to the storyline (that includes going into background tasks and trying to stop or pause the rendering from there!)  Once I moved the library back into my user folder (and inside Movies), all the rendering problems stopped.
    The only connection I can make is that FCPX is getting hung up on user permissions and the "current user". A lot of these issues started when I upgraded to a new iMac and restored all my old software (from the previous iMac) from Time Machine. It made me alter my user name for the new machine and I had some segments on this new machine with the older user permissions which I had to manually change to the new username in many cases.
    If you have strict (user only) permissions on your RAID, try loosening them or make sure that you add your username to the list with read/write permissions. (? perhaps.)

  • How to I get a folder to open up in Final Cut Pro version 6 thats off my desktop?

    How do I get a folder to open up in Final Cut Pro version 6.  I'm on a MAC OS X Version 10.6.8.  The movie folders I imported on my desktop from a Lacie Rugged Triple external hard drive.   When I try to import the folder a pop up comes up that says, "ERROR: No translatin templates matching the selected XML file were found.  Unable to import this file."   When I try and drag the folder into Final Cut a pop up comes up that reads "Please choose a translation document file".  What should I do or what am I not doing?

    YYou should ask this question on the Final Cut Studio forum.

  • How can I export a file that may use in Final Cut Pro?

    Hello friends,
    May I know how to export a file that I can use it Final Cut Pro???

    If you are talking about rendering then just use any production codec that FCP supports. You have access to them all. Use the Render Cue or create a custom preset in the Adobe Media Encoder.
    If you want to do something like dynamic link with FCP, that does not exist. You can save a PPro project as a FCP XML but any PPro effects or PPro settings unique to PPro will not come across. If you turn an After Effects project into a FCP project by going through PPro as was suggested then you will NOT get any of the effects you applied to your composition or any of the animation or anything but the footage In and Out points, opacity, rotation and position because that is all that will be moved into PPro because After Effects plug-ins are not compatible with PPro. If there is a dynamic link to an AE project in your PPro project that will not move to FCP at all. You'll get nothing.
    So the long and short of it is if you want the work that you have done in AE to show up in FCP you must render the project. I use ProRez 444 10 bit for any work I do on FCP. You can make a custom Output Module preset to help speed up the workflow.
    If you are new to AE please read this on rendering: After Effects Help | Basics of rendering and exporting
    If you are really new please go through these three tutorials: Basic Workflow

  • How do you get rid of 'empty' pre-roll time in logic pro 9?

    how do you get rid of the pre-roll time in logic pro 9?  
    My project's start time is 8-bars before any material, or tempos, or anything...  
    Can't move the start time back to ")" (zero)    STUCK!!  at -8
    The song now has 20 seconds of dead air time in a pre-roll.
    None of these worked or revealed anything...
    -tried making a new copy of song
    -looked into every track's file information looking for a spurious entry
    -tried deleting the time/space

    Hi
    Check for any Track Automation nodes in the "preroll'.
    CCT
    Edit
    You should note that generally negative (or zero) project start numbers should be avoided at all cost: there are many peculiar behaviour problems associated with them.

  • How to publish Motion 5 templates with another editor's Final Cut Pro x

    How to publish Motion 5 templates with another editor's Final Cut Pro x

    That's also simpel,
    Let the Motion 5 designer deliver the map that he made. For example he made a title effect with the title "We Are Awesome Company Title" than you get that map after the head "Effects" map. So he must send that map with all the stuff in it to an editor and the editor place that map in Motion Templates -> Effects.
    Restart Final Cut Pro X and there you go.

    DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...

    Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
    VisualHub (23.32$)

    Toast 6/7/8 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
    connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter

  • I can't get my blade tool to work in Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7

    I can't get my blade tool to work in Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7. I magnify the clip to the highest zoom and when I select the blade tool, I see the icon but when I click on the clip to chop it.....nothing. The blade turns red and nothing happens. Please help.

    If you are in fact in the active project window, try command B at the location of the skimmer and see whether it makes the edit.

  • Problem finding my sound effects and music in final cut pro X

    I am having a problem finding my sound effects and music in final cut pro X.  I just bought a new i
    Mac, because my Mac pro died.  when I was using the mac pro, I had final cut Pro X loaded, and in the Music and sound library, I had stock tracks from APM music that came with final cut.  now that I have loaded final cut to my new computer, I do not see those tracks.  Am I missing something?

    The FCP X sound effects were an additional external download and were not kept in the FCP X application.
    You probably need to re-download them.
    In the FCP menu at the top left of your screen you will see the download link.

  • Why does my 4:3 miniDV video keep getting captured as 16:9? (Vidi/Final Cut Pro question)

    This is partially related to Final Cut Studio, although not necessarily.  I've been trying to back up dozens of my miniDV tapes on to my harddrive for several months now, racing against the clock as their video quality starts to degrade.  Since Final Cut Pro started giving me problems with the timecode breaks, I started using a capture program called Vidi instead (v0.4.7)  Everything was capturing well, considering, until just last week where several of my tapes, which were shot in 4:3, would capture as 16:9.  That is, the video files were clearly stretched to a 16:9 aspect ratio and appeared distorted.  Today I tried to go back to Final Cut (v6.0.6) to capture it the old way, and, lo and behold, the video was once again being stretched to 16:9.
    A few things:
    - I'm about as sure as I can be that these tapes were shot in 4:3.  I've watched them several times on my TV and they are played back in 4:3, with the black bars on the left and right.
    - I had actually captured video previously from one of these tapes a few years back and it recorded as a 4:3 video file, just as it should.
    - I definitely have "4:3" checked off in Vidi when I capture the video.  What's even more infuriating, is that BOTH Vidi and Final Cut show the video playing in its 4:3 aspect ration during apture.  It's only when I check the captured file that it's been stretched to 16:9
    - A tape I shot in 2008 captured perfectly with Vidi today - in it's 4:3 format.  That seems to imply that it's not a software setting issue.
    I'm starting to lose my mind with this, especially since I haven't found a single reference to this problem anywhere else.  All I want is to get the raw DV data off of these tapes to work with at a future date, and I'd like it to be exactly as it was originally shot, not distorted.  Maybe some bit of code on these tapes got messed up over time, resulting in capture software to think it was shot in 16:9?  These tapes aren't anywhere near my oldest ones - they're from 2010 and 2011.  Is there something obvious I'm missing when I capture these videos?  If there's no other solution, is it possible to squeeze them back to 4:3?  It might not look as good as if were captured in it's native format, but I'm out of ideas.

    Not sure if it makes any difference for archiving purposes, but dv files (dv streams) are not generally recommended for use in fcp.  .mov with the dv codec is how fcp captures SD video via firewire.  Someone a few months ago claimed that .dv was fine with fcp, but I seem to remember that audio will always need to be rendered and since I always use fcp for capture of DV material, it's not an issue for me. 
    You can use compressor to both convert to .mov with the dv codec and reset the anamorphic flag.  Not sure if there will be any loss of quality, so it might be worth testing this.  Perhaps someone with more knowledge will speak up regarding this or alternative methods of converting .dv to .mov
    What problems are you having capturing from within fcp?  Shouldn't be a problem.  I find that setting the easy setup correctly is crucial for successful capturing.  Even if all the individual elements that seem to compose the easy set up are correct, there can still be problems.  Perhaps you might want to start a new thread regarding your capture problems and we can see if we can solve the problem.
