Keynote transition effects on fcp

Just wondering if anyone know how I can use keynote effects on fcp. Or how I can get transition plugins that Keynote program is using to use in fcp.

Hi MooVee,
Afraid that Keynote and FCP are two different beasts, so there's no plug-in infrastructure or the like to share transition styles.
You can, however, generate clips in Keynote and export them as QuickTime movies into Final Cut. I use Keynote as my primary titling tool, as it's so fast and easy to use. For creating titles, be sure that your Master has a Transparent (None) background, and your slide the same. Then create your title animation, and Export it as a QuickTime movie with the "Include transparency" checkbox ticked, and using the Animation compression settings. This will give you a QT clip with an alpha channel that you can add to your FCP timeline.
I sometimes monkey with the size of the Keynote master to match the video size, and bring in still screenshots form the video to put in as a compositional reference (deleting it, of course, when I export the movie). But as you know, you can ultimately adjust the placement of the video in FCP, so it's not always necessary.

Is there a "Flash or White Wash" transition effect in FCP?

Hey guys,
I'm trying to get a transition effect of a "white Wash or like a Flash" in FCP5? It's an effect you see on tv when people get a make over from looking bad to looking really cool with a transition that looks like a flash or white wash.
Anyone please,
Thanks in advance,
Zia

I'm actually a fan of a combination of both Tom's and Andy's method.
Being old enough to remember film and the cool effects you'd get when stopping the camera (a number of frames that went to white as the film slowed in the gate to a stop-- number of frames depended totally on the camera. Asynchronous cameras were usually longer 6 frames or so, and the Arri's were usually 2 at most.)
Anyway, if you warp out a frame or two with the CC and use them in your opacity ramp, you can get some really cool stuff.

Transition Effects / Handles

Im using a Canon XL2 to tape and capture my footage (DV NTSC)..
Once I'm editing and adding transition effect on FCP 5.1.1 i find that it only lets me put 1sec transitions. If i want to make the transition anywhere longer than 1sec i have to have some sort of "handle" on the clip(s) my question is...Is there any way to have the computer automatiaclly add 1second handles to the start and end of each clip (i use the capture now feature and capture the whole tape then use the DV start/stop detect and make subclips)....i shoot weddings so im dealing with 200plus clips on any given project and it is very time consuming to have to munually add 1sec handles to the start/end of each clip just to be able to use a 2sec video and/or audio transition..thanks for anyhelp anybody can provide, it's greatly appreciated

dude ... this is what editing is! surely you don't use every frame of every clip you shoot? you look at the clip, you choose your in-point and out-point, whatever comes before the in-point or after the out-point is the handle you have left to play with ...if theres not enough space for a 2 sec dissolve then choose a new outpoint/inpoint or choose a shorter transition
if you want auto handles then you need to use iMovie, that will do what you want as it is designed for those who dont really "edit".

Do transition effects created as a layered Photoshop file transfer to FCP?

I can transfer my photoshop files to FCP but layers are stacked with loss of transition effects applied. Is there a way round this?

FCP is Final Cut Pro. I import the PSD files to an event in the library on
FCP as a PSD file. Tutorials suggest that FCP will retain many of the layer
features created in Photoshop, but recommend rasterizing. Rasterizing
however removes transition animations so the layers are left as they are -
as smart objects. On import to FCP the layers are stacked and without the
animation. Instead I am now working in Photoshop with keyframes, rendering
before adding clips to FCP. Helen

Keynote 3 - Bullet highlight transition effect

Hi everyone ..
I'm using Keynote 3 for a very important presentation to be given in a few days. One thing I like to use is the highlight transitioning effect when showing a list of bullets. However it seems to be somewhat arbitrary in when it lets me use that effect. Here's an example. I have a text box that is nothing but bullets .. K3 lets me use the "By highlighted bullet" delivery option on the Character Dissolve transition. So I then duplicate that field, and then try to apply the same transition effect, but instead, K3 only gives me "All at once" or "By paragraph" options .. it doesn't see that I'm still dealing with bullets.
How do I get the program to recognize that I want the bullet delivery options and not the paragraph ones?
Thanks in advance.
Craig

either stick to ONE text box (body) or do it manually by using one slide per bullet change and change the colors manually. Kinda of a pain, but doing it that way makes things easy to keep track of.

Keynote '09: 2 transition effects per slide initiated by 2 hyperlinks?

I want to do a flip book. So far it looks great.
I'm using forward and back hyperlinks to transition b/w slides.
Problem: I can only get one style of transition effects/slide, so when I flip back to a previous slide the flip animation looks like I'm flipping forward.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Ok... After more scouring, I found this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2355380?start=0&tstart=0
Which had this part buried in it:
Remove the navigation (rip out the hyperlinks), set the presentation to run as a Normal Presentation, then Share>QuickTime>Fixed Timing. That's right, I said Fixed Timing. Turns out me and a lot of other people (and yes, some tier 1 support folk at Apple) misunderstood Fixed Timing. Fixed Timing lets a Normal presentation run with the audio and moves on to the next slide when the audio is finished - which is exactly what I wanted (the QuickTime controls automatically appear after the movie is rendered). Slide Duration is actually the delay between slides so set this to 1 second and Build Duration affects the timing of the Builds, but I also set this to 1 second since it was destined for web delivery (bandwidth!).
I struck thru the first part b/c that wasn't relevant to my issue, BUT... what WAS relevant was removing all of my carefully timed slide delay transitions, then using the above method. It worked flawlessly, as far as I can tell. It seems without documentation or help of any kind (that I could find) no one, even Apple support staff, knows what the true function of Fixed Timing is supposed to be. So hopefully, if someone else stumbles across this post, they'll be able to do the right thing, from the start and not waste hours with expensive or additional programs and work arounds.
Follow the above method and still get your timed HD quality Quicktime .mov.

Disappearing transition effects

In new presentations one of the slide transition effects has disappeared from the drop down menu (Grid). When I copy paste a slide from an older presentation that does have Grid transition, it is back in the menu.
Anyone any ideas how this could have disappeared? I'm not sure exactly when this occurred but I'm pretty sure Grid was still there when I used Keynote v.3 for the first time after upgrading from v.2

Go to your preferences and turn on the obsolete transitions and builds.
We don't know why they are considered obsolete, but it lookks like Apple wanted to have only 25 in the list as a default. This will give you all the old ones.

"Fall" or "Caída" transition effect

Hi,
First of all, I have the Spanish version of iWork 08. Before that, I had iWork 06, also in Spanish. In that version, there was a 3D effect called "Caída" (or "Fall" in English, i supose). On the 08 version of Keynote, that effect dissapeared, but there is a 2D effect called also "Caída". I have checked in the preferences the option for showing obsolete animations and, apparently, this problem is only on the Spanish translation.
My theory is this: In English, there are two differents effects that in the Spanish translation, they are both called "Caída". Since they have the same name, the transition selector shows only one of them (the 2D version in this case).
I think this because I have a presentation made with iWork 06 that uses the 3D version of "Caída" and when I open it with iWork 08 and play it, the transitino is shown perfectly... but if i change it to another, i can't select it again....
Is it possible that my problem is because this issue with translations conflicts?
Regards.

I forgot to mention that I found this similar thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6667490
Anyway, I did some tests and I found the following: If I examine the contents of the Keynote.app package, there is file, Contents/Resources/Animations/Bolt.sfxplugin/Contents/Resources/Spanish.lproj/L ocalizable.strings. If I change the line
"Fall FallBuild" = "Caída";
for
"Fall FallBuild" = "Caída3D";
The "Caída" 3D transition effect appears again in the inspector . The only bad thing is that the 2D "Caída" effect dissapears... the 2D "Caída" transition effect is the same effect that can be applied to objects and is called, again, "Caída". That effect is apparently translated in this file:
Contents/Frameworks/SFAnimation.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Spanish.lproj/Loc alizable.strings
in the line
"Drop Bounce" = "Caída";
So, I don't know exactly what, but apparently there is an issue with this...
Regards.

Third party Flash transition effects

Can third party transition effects be used in Catalyst?

The effect code would not be accessible to Catalyst. You can use Flash Profession to animate the item with the effect you want, then import that swf into Flash Catalyst. FC does allow you to play and stop a swf.
The imported swf should be published with player 10.1 as the target.
Hope this helps,

How do I create an orange flash transition effect using Adobe Premiere CS6?

I am trying to create an orange flash transition effect using Adobe Premiere CS6 with my MAC computer.

Try this:
Add Cross Dissolve, cut and nest
Add a Fast Blur to the nest and tweak as in first screendump
Superimpose orange Color Matte and tweak as in second screendump
Make (fixed) effects into presets for future use.
Good luck.

N97 Transition Effect Problem

As you all know that the N97 user interface is not attractive due to the lack of the real transition effects, my 5800 have a nice iphone like transitions, but for the N97 the transition effect is very simple! Only some sliding menus and that’s it!! I wonder where is the screen orientation swivel effect we've seen in early N97 prototype videos? However, once I enable the transition effects on my N97 it will start to become unstable with crashes and it will affect some other programs like the photo gallery (will hang sometimes and gives low res pictures or just the whole program will go to the background while using the zoom button!) and the Web browser will start to display mid and large websites without images!!! I tried to reload the page so many times but only the text appears without any image! After trying so many times at last the page loaded successfully with all images but my happiness didn't last as I discovered that the phone turned off the transition effects automatically! When I went to the themes menu to check, it was turned on but actually it’s not working as the phone disabled it in order to load the web page! It happened to my three times since I updated my firmware last week (V 11)! I think this is because of the lack of enough RAM, I removed all the online widgets from the home screen (like facebook and accuweather) and just used contacts, programs, calendar, email, and music shortcuts which gave me additional 5 MB of free RAM and the phone felt more stable but still can’t handle the transition effects and proper Web pages display simultaneously! My 5800 handles web pages better and display all images even if the transition effects are turned on! I hope Nokia will fix these issues and gives us an option to disable the Widgets and Kinetic scrolling (Make the UI just like the 5800) in order to have more free RAM and enjoy full transition effects and proper Web Browsing with better stability just like the 5800.

Any updates on the effects? I wrote to Nokia support, I'm in Russia, they replied.
I have illustrated my question with the links to youtube where it is clearly visible how the UI rotates and other animation effects when opening the widgets.
My translation of the official reply:
"In firmware version 11 those effects do work! Try to resent the phone to the factory settings by typing: *#7780#, standard lock code is - 12345 or try to format the phone memory. Do your data and contacts back up using PC Suite . enter *#7370# (formats phone memory), enter the code 12345 the phone will resent. Then restore your back up."

Keynote transitions in Author

I am probably confused. When Apple posts Keynote transitions for iPad, I assumed they meant, if you apply them in Keynote for Mac, then import into Author, they work. But they don't (Typewriter build, for example). So perhaps Apple's referring to creating a presentation with KN for iPad, and then importing it?
Anyone have experience with this combination?
I looked for a KN for iPad slot in the forums, but didn't find one.
Thanks.

As I understand it the Keynote presentation gets exported to iBook Author as HTML. Only transitions that will survive that conversion will work. I know (having just tried it) that not all do.
You might also try your question in the iBook Author community.

DVD Menu Transition Effects

I have successfully created a motion graphic DVD menu in AE, which I have rendered to be authored in Encore. The theme is horror/thriller with thriller theme for the BG music. There are two(2) selecitons on the main menu:
Play Movie Bonus Features
When the user chooses Play Movie, I would like a transition effect leading to the main video to be played. And maybe a different transition effect when the user selects Bonus Features before getting into the submenu of bonus features.
Can anyone sugguest any resources (e.g., books, manuals, blogs, video resources, courses, etc.) that can provide a tutorial on how to perform the procedure(s) in AE and EN?
Your assistance would be highly appreciated.

The ones I am seeing are not for transitions specifically - quite a few bad links. And the ones I see may be for older versions.

Muted Color Effect in FCP

I have a clip that i need to make look really boring and dull. Other than changing it to black and white is there any other effect in FCP i can use to make it look muted and dull? Cheers.

you could add a sepia filter, but make the sepia grey from the colour picker,
rgb filter and dial out some of the colours, colour corrector 3way and crush the mids, duplicate the timeline video layer and blend composite mode to soft light or screen or add
