How to obtain this effect in FCPX?

Hey all,
I'm trying to subtitle a video and I'd like to add more contrast to the words in order to improve legibility. Can anyone tell me how to obtain in FCPX the effect that's present in the frame below? I'm referring to the gray part behind the text.
Thanks!

An alternative method which I prefer is to use a normal lower thirds title and give it an outline of around 3 or 4 pixels in the Inspector.
I find that this is quick and easy to do (if you have made a custom one) and shows up well against almost any type of background.

How to make this effect in Keylight?

Hi, I have question, how to make this effect in Keylight?
I know that this overlay is added here:

http://iv.pl/images/18475588964010299091.jpg

Keylight what? All I see is some effect similar to Leave Color, a.k.a the Pleasantville effect that made the rounds 10 years ago. It may require additional masking and otehr effects, but definitely not something that is specifically related to Keylight...

How to achieve this Effect?

Hey everyone i was wondering if you guys had any idea how to achieve this effect in flash.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QftcJtvLr8g

While you could probably do this in Flash, it is much more simply done using AfterEffects. There's a splendid text tool that can be tortured into effects like this. Have a look at the podcasts from Creative Cow on AfterEffects for some interesting examples.

Can anyone tell me how to do this effect

The easiest way is probably to use Image -> Adjustments -> Hue/Saturation and check the "Colorize" checkbox, then select the Hue and Saturation of the color you want.

How to gain this effect

I would like your advice on obtaining this effect.
In the piece of film below at 15/16 / 28 and 41 seconds etc etc the red and yellowish blur/wash
http://www.vimeo.com/5093179
I'm guessing it's a standard wash from some kind of media as I've seen it introduced within many pieces of film
Thanks for all.
Message was edited by: Andrew Yoole - fixed faulty Vimeo link

It's achieved by blending the flash frames from a piece of film into your footage, usually with additive or screen blend modes.
There's lots of this kind of material available at stock video outlets: search Artbeats or iStockphoto for "Film Flash" or "Film Clutter".

How to make this effect ? ( video )

Hi all
how to make the screen blink dark like in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TszuTgFx93U
starts at 0.46 end at 0.50
can anyone tell me hows it called ?

If you mean this effect and then changing to a black screen then this is a glow with an add blend mode and a blur followed by a black layer multiplied with opacity keyframes.
I would put the video on the bottom layer, then add an adjustment layer and set the in and out point of the adjustment layer to the length you want to have this effect. It's only a few frames in the sample video. Then I'd go to the middle of the adjustment layer and add Glow to see if you could get close to this effect. Then I'd animate the opacity of the adjustment layer from zero to 100 over a few frames. I'd then set a new black solid above that and set the blend mode to Multiply. Set the in point just past the second keyframe in the adjustment layer and set the opacity to 0. Then move in a few frames and set the opacity of the black solid to 100% and set the out point of the adjustment layer to the same spot. Then move down a frame or two and set another opacity keyframe for the black solid at 100% then move down a few frames and set the opacity to zero and set an out point for the black solid.
Figuring these things out is just a matter of looking at the frames and trying to figure how to stack layers up to achieve the effect. Grab some stills from various parts of an effect you are trying to copy and then try and figure out what you could do to the footage to get the same result. Only a few of the effects you see are just a single plug-in applied to a single layer. This is the best way to learn After Effects.
Here's what a comp would look like using a frame from the sample video. Note that the adjustment layer and the black solid are only a few frames long. I made a quick stab at the color grading of the frame by making some adjustments to the A and B colors of the glow, added some blur, and added a little color correction to the adjustment layer using curves. This should get you started.

⌅ How to obtain this symbol

Hello from Paris !!!
I'd like to know how i can obtain this symbol ⌅ on a mac os Lion.
And may be some one has a solution to find by myself how i can discover any symbol i need.
The probleme is for exemple whith Logic 9 when i am looking for shortcut, the soft give it to me but not the way to do it.
To write it i had to make an export of the Logic's shortcuts in simple text.
So, for me the best should be an application on wich i could enter any symbol to ask it how to do it and to get the shortcut.
Sorry for my english, it was not easy to write that.
Thanks

what do you mean by "obtain"? Since you typed it in your post, you seem to have already "obtained" it...?
If you want to know what it means: it is the (numeric pads') enter key. To get a keyboard and character viewer, you have to go System Preferences>Language & Text > Input Sources and enable both Keyboard & Character viewer and Show Input menu in Menu bar. You should now have a dropdown somewhere near your system clock with both the Keyboard Viewer and the Character palette.

How to do this effect in photoshop?

How do I do the effect used in this photo – to cover a face with a layer that follows all the curves. And what do you call this effect?

This is called a layer mask that has had layer transparency done to it and, possibly a series of Layer effects, too! There are quite a few steps and procedures to create this type of effect.
I don't have the patience to try to give you each exact step by step to achieve this, but you might have better luck posting your query and image to a Photoshop users forum such as this.
Planet Photoshop.
http://planetphotoshop.com/
Someone there may have created the entire procedures to recreate this effect.
Good Luck!

How to do this effect?

How do you achieve this effect on 1:35. the clapping effect
http://www.vimeo.com/4441517

Looks like it's just random 1 or 2 frame cuts over the main shot.

Any ideas how to achieve this effect?

Hi there - I'm wanting to make some one layer stencils, and would love to replicate this effect, does anyone know a, if it has a name, and b how you'd go about creating it in photoshop (I'm fine to create the duotone high contrast image, just want the wavey line effect)Thanks for taking the time out peeps, fingers crossed D

Thanx for the response, I'll give both of those a try when Im back home laters, the 2nd idea sounds more likely to produce those sort of lines, its an effect I've seen quite often, so was surprised not to see more about it online (which is why I was asking if the technique had a name).
Its kind of a more messed up version of the lined (which sort of tapers off at each end) effect you get when zoomed in on some TV's (cept in this case is vertical rather than horizontal . . .
