Transition in motion 5

Hi friends
Can you guys show me some links to some great motion 5 transtions.

Hi Luxorox
Thanks for the tips. I have always try to reverse engineer motion template to see what is under the skin. But sometimes it is quite tedious to do so, especially when behaviours are involved. However I have never tried to
select a transition in Final Cut Pro and see how apple made it. Now I just got Final Cut x and motion 5 and still
trying to get to grips with FCP X. It's a whole new beast. Anyway if there is a great quality link to your tube tutorial such as those from Macbreak, etc. please let me know. Meanwhile stay cool and cheers!

Can't open fcpx transition in motion 5

Hi guys,
I want to adjust a Final Cut Pro X transition in Motion 5 (the Swap transition) but when I ctrl-click on it, it doesn't give me the option to open in Motion while some other transitions do.
Is this a bug and does anyone know a workaround? Rebuilding the transition in motion would cost me a lot of time.
Thanx

Not all of the built-in templates can be modified. Some are built in part with the FX Plug coding language. Those can not be modified in Motion 5. Althoug Swap seems pretty simple. But still, not all built-in tempaltes can be opened in Motion 5. Not a bug.
That specific transition would actually be really easy to build from scratch. What did you want to change about it? I may know of someone who'd done that already.

Can you make an audio transition in Motion 5? If so, how?

I remember before I upgraded to FCPX the previous version of Final Cut had audio transitions (a cross fade 0Db and a cross fade +3Db). I have not needed an audio transition in Final Cut until now and I couldn't find one in FCPX. So I set out to build one in Motion 5 (I have experience in creating my own generators and transitions in motion) but I could not seem to figure out how to work with audio. If someone could please give me some pointers or let me know if this is even possible that would be great. Thanks, Jobstevenson.

Hi
Motion is a graphics tool, and not designed to work with audio.
You will want to look at the manual for FCPX to find out how to do audio dissolves. I'm guessingt he audio will need to be in a Storyline for you to beable to do this. The other wa is the have the audio as connected clips and simply add a fade up and and down to the clip end and start.

How do I make a circle like transition in Motion?

I am very new to motion and I need some help. How do I create a transition similar to the circle transition in FCPX, but instead of a circle I want to use a shape I created in photoshop? In other words Transition A will be replaced by transition B with my object sweeping in. Sorry if my question is very elementary.
thanks,
Brian

You can absolutely use an image you create in Photoshop. Here's how I would do it.
-Create a new FCP Transition in Motion.
-Set the A/B image to the full length of the project.
-Import the graphic you want to use (Circle, Star, Heart, Pokémon, etc.)
-Animate the shape to fill the screen (scale parameter with keyframes, grow shrink behavior).
-Apply an image mask to the Transition A layer (command -shift-M).
-Add the shape to the image mask.
-In the image mask, I'd publish the Invert option. This way you can flip which is inside or outside. When you are in FCPX you can just click the checkbox in the inspector to get what you want.
This is just a starting point, but you can get much more fancy with publishing and rigging when you get more comfortable with Motion. Good luck.

Upgrade and plug ins migration ? speed changes and transitions to motion 3

I have the FCS2 upgrade on its way soon i hope..
will my natress plug ins and others migrate when i go from FCS1 to 2?
I am mid project - have done all my captures but havent got into the nitty gritty of the edit yet - you reckon its a bit risky to upgrade?
I am super keen to get the ability to easily do ramps (in Motion 3 or in FC 6) and 3d logo fly arounds. Looking fwd to being able to throw transitions and speed changes into Motion 3 - i hear that it can deal with that now - is this true?

Thanks - thats all good

Export problem - transitions and motion are not clear, lines

I am using FCP with a blend of pictures and video clips. When I do the export, the pictures are showing up pretty clear but the transitions are coming out unclear, like with lines through it. A sample is here:
http://www.metrosportsimages.com/Reunion/testexport3.mov
I'm guessing this has to do with my export settings. I've tried exporting with numerous different settings and still no success. Once I changed the settings and it makes the pictures unclear so the transitions look "not so liney" looking, but that's just because the quality is lower and the blur is preventing the lines from showing as much.
I'm hoping someone can help. I am supposed to be burning this movie to DVD and producing 100 copies by Friday!

This happened to me once, using stills in fcp, due to a problem with my hard drive: so I'd be interested to hear a resolution,particularly as I can't get back the project file due to said problem

Purchasing transitions (and/or creating ones in Motion)

I'm going to be doing a lot of work for a pretty straight-forward interview type TV show that is looking to spice up its transitions and are open to the idea of purchasing some to go beyond what FCP includes. I was looking at the ones from Eiperle and Eureka (both of which look good, are affordable, and can be used on multiple computers) and Sapphire. I'm wondering A) if there are others I should look into and B) which people recommend for what is essentially an Entertainment Tonight style show.
Also, I'm wondering if it is possible to create transitions in Motion that can be dropped into FCP (or better yet, if the templates, such as the 'frames/glass' one, can be saved without elements and dropped into FCP as a transition between clips)
Thanks for your help!

This link http://www.fxscriptreference.org/ doesn't work for me, it says:

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I really want to make my own scripts in FCP so can you check if this is the right link or if something else is wrong?
Thanks

Audio problem with a Motion transition in FCPX

I've looked everywhere for a solution to this and nobody seems to be having the same problem. So I decided I'd try here.
Basically I've been using Final Cut Pro X for a while now and just this week I decided to buy and try out Motion 5 to go with FCPX.
I've spent the past 3 days making a transition in Motion for use in my FCPX projects and I finally have it the way I like it. It's 3 seconds long and also has 2 audio files in the timeline. The transition plays perfectly with the audio when I do a RAM preview in Motion or when I export it from Motion.
However, it's saved as a transition, which I need to use in FCPX. It shows up in Final Cut and i can use it in my timeline and the video renders fine, but there's no audio. Whatever I do I just cant get the audio to play in Final Cut. I've updated to the newet versions of FCPX and Motion just in case.
Whether I play the timeline or export my FCPX project it makes no difference, the audio just does not play in Final Cut. I'd love if anyone had an idea why this is happening?
I've tried changing the file type of the auido used in Motion from mp3 to aiff because it's more native to OS X, I've also tried publishing the audio perimeters in Motion but no such luck with either.
I'm still fairly new to FCPX and in particular, Motion 5 so there could definitely be something I'm missing in terms of settings. Maybe I'm wrong but are or can transitions even have audio in them?
If anyone has any idea why my transition audio doesn't play in Final Cut, I'd appreciate any help.
(I'm on OS X 10.8.1 on a 2009 24" iMac)

I havent checked this, but I suspect that the audio does not make it across to fcpx. You might need to create the audio bits in fcpx, maybe export as a mix and re-import into a Keep Assets event. I keep all sorts of goodies in one of these. The communication between Motion and FCPX is a pain in many workflows still, and I wiat for the day when Motion is rolled into FCPX to make life easier ( so long as they dont take any features away of course)

Motion transitions affecting export

I recently finished editing a video. Originally I just used basic cross dissolves for most of my transitions. However, for a few key spots I decided to use some more involved transitions from Motion. I got it all smoothed out the way I want it, however, after burning my DVD I realized those transitions were not there. I tried opening DVD Studio Pro but it would not initialize the assets properly. I had to use Time Machine to open a copy of my DVDSP file before I added the video asset in question. I then opened the video in Final Cut Pro, and it plays fine, but when try to export it to Quicktime Movie (self-contained or not....no difference) it gets about 9% done and then it simply says general error.
I know that this is directly related to those motion files, but I don't just want to delete them. Any ideas?

Here some possible solutions that may work when a general error occurs:
Try [this small application|http://www.digitalrebellion.com/pref_man.htm] to delete your preferences. Close FCP>run the preference manager>empty bin>restart the machine.
Trash your renders using render manager from FCP main menu>Tools.
From motion export using a codec that matches your sequence settings and use those export rather than Motion projects .motn straight from the application.

Motion 5 - Transitions with breaks in the video content? How?

I hope someone can help with this. I am trying to create a transition between two clips which while transitioning will show a text frame ot introduce the next video. I want it to break the flow between the videos. When I create the transition in Motion 5 I have assembled all the elements, made transition A last for 2 seconds, there is a 6 second gap then as the camera pans to the text element and then across to Transition B which itself then runs for 2 seconds.
This is how i designed it, it works fine in Motion and looks how I want it. However when I export to Final Cut and use in a project it creates the transition but it ignores the break i put between content A and content B. Instead I get 5 second tail out of Clip A and 5 seconds lead in on Clip B. Its driving me mad as I want both feeds to go quiet and do nothing while the text displays.
Does anyone know how I can get FCP to recognise the break I have put in Motion and therefore only tail each clip for 2 seconds not the entire duration of the transition?
If this cant bedone, how could I best acheive what im trying to do?
Thanks for any help that can be offered.
James

Try this first:
Select the Project "layer" and in the Inspector > Properties select Override FCP. This will "force" fcpx to use the timing you designated for your project as the length to use for the transition. Otherwise, FCPX uses the length you have set in fcpx preferences.

Custom transition edge error

I'm working with a custom transition created in Motion 5.
My project is SD 720x486, and so are the custom transitions. In order to create the effect I wish, both the Transition A and Transition B layers in Motion must cover the entire length of the project. However, when I apply the transition in FCP, I get a 1 pixel border around the entire image that shows the B-layer edge.
Here you can see (especially at the bottom of the image) this border.
As a test, I created a new transition in Motion ONLY containing a Transition A and B layer without any added layers or effects. This error appears with this test transition as well, so I'm certain it's not a problem with my media/effects. I've also made sure that all layers in Motion are scaled at 100%.
As of note, the material being edited is 720p material that has been scaled to fit in a SD project.
Any ideas as to what has been causing this problem? I will be happy to clarify anything if you find something confusing. Thanks so much for your help!

Hi,
On Solaris 10 and Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11.2.0.2 did the following. Posting this as it might be useful to someone else. Installed Grid Infrastructure as oracle.
As root:
# ${GRID_HOME}/bin/appvipcfg create -network=1 -ip=<vip_address> -vipname=<vip_name> -user=root
In the above command, if you are wondering what -network=1 is, got useful info from "Oracle GoldenGate high availability using Oracle Clusterware" white paper at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/goldengate/overview/ha-goldengate-whitepaper-128197.pdf
As per the white paper, if you do
crsctl status resource -p | egrep -i 'network|subnet' | egrep -i 'name|subnet'
output will look something like this:
NAME=ora.net1.network
USR_ORA_SUBNET=10.2.0.0
net1 in NAME indicates this is network 1, and second line indicates the subnet on which the vip will be created.
# ${GRID_HOME}/bin/crsctl setperm resource <vip_name> -u user:oracle:r-x
I did the following as oracle:
Oracle_Prompt> ${GRID_HOME}/bin/crsctl start resource <vip_name>
If you want to relocate this vip to other node in the cluster:
Oracle_Prompt> ${GRID_HOME}/bin/crsctl relocate resource <vip_name> -s <source_node> -n <target_node>
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Moorthy.

Creating a Transition Template for FCPX

So I am familiar with FCPX and editing, however I am still working on developing my skills in animated graphics. I found a great transition I want to brand my videos with but it is saved as a After Effects Project. Upon opening it AE just has transparency behind it and no placeholder media for what would be transitioning. This would work find if I was making my project in AE, but I want to save this transition as a Transition that pops up in my FCPX Transitions Panel. I know you can create custom transitions in Motion, but I was wondering if anyone has had experience in making transitions, and if it would be possible to get an AE transition to be used as a Motion transition. Man I hope that makes sense lol.
Link to Transition I want to save as a template in FCPX: LINK

Yeah -
Create your logo graphics in AE (you'll need to -- can't do that kind of 3D effects in Motion). Remove anything that pertains to a background and Export the project as ProRes 4444 (you'll need the transparency — everything that is background should be transparent.)
In Motion, move the playhead to the point at which you want the storyline to transition from the incoming clip to the outgoing clip. Select Transition A layer and type 0 to mark an out point. Select Transition B layer and type 'i' to mark an in point.
Save the transition. Supply a Category name (say: My Logo) and a project name (you don't need to deal with Themes and you don't need to provide a Preview).

Create new, custom transitions?

Hi all! I'm working on possibly replacing FCP X in my workflow. One of the great things about FCPX and Motion was that I could create my own transitions using Motion and "placeholder" footage, then easily load them as new transition effects in an FCP X project. I have a series of light leak transitions that were basically a dissolve between A and B, with the light leak/bokeh footage overlaid with Add blend mode. While I know I can just place the footage over the edit points on the timeline, it would be much easier and cleaner to simply apply these as transitions instead.
Is it possible to create my own custom transitions with Premiere or After Effects, that can be applied as transition effects directly to clips on the timeline?

Can't change length of transition

Hi there,
Chronology of problem:
1) opened project and the footage was offline. Message was couldn't access capture/scratch disk. Went to preference and re-did scratch disks.
2) FCP wouldn't open, disappearing partway through boot.
3) trashed preferences. No change.
4) re-installed FCP 5.01. Project opened and could edit timeline.
5) Added a cross dissolve. Supposed to be a one second transition but it's one frame.
6) Double-clicked and tried to change it in the viewer window, but it won't change from one frame no matter what number are inputted.
7) Tried dragging the end of the transition to lengthen. Won't lengthen.
Anyone else had this problem?
Thanks so much.
Best,
Malcolm

I did the cross fade transition in Motion on the file itself. I then did a test with another Motion file and I was able to change the length of the transition. Very weird.
So the question still lingers, but the problem was solved.

FCPx Transitions?

I have noticed that 99% of the transitions that I am putting into my videos say "Do you want to overlap (ripple trim) your media to create the transition?"
Why is this?
Also when it comes to the point where I wish to increase the duration of the transition then this becomes a real problem because it just riples the video along.
How can I increase the handles for the transition and so increase the transition duration.
I've seen Modify Duration..
Thanks!

This video goes over a good bit of the details about transitions and how to deal with handles (all the FCPX info starts at about 1:30 into the video -- the beginning is setting up a transition in Motion.)
