Final Cut Pro X starter guide

There are further links to online guides etc in this post, on a blog where I gather tech tips/guides.

There are two versions of this - I initially did this without sound, and the video was longer as I rushed to get it online in time for a lesson.

The first video is shorter but actually has more tips and points, as well as a voiceover. Most, not all of my voiceover points are covered by the onscreen titles, so you can always mute the audio when re-viewing this to check on a particular tool or technique.

Keep a log of tools, shortcuts, techniques and general pointers that YOU can refer back to quickly.



VODCAST WITH VOICEOVER
By the time you come to do A-Levels, if you pick Media you'll be creating vodcasts - this isn't the most polished example you'll ever see, but follows the basic framework you'd want: a title sequence, relevant imagery/clips at all times, voiceover doubled up with clear titles (which I've resized to be much bigger than the default in FCPX).

I tweaked this twice, shortening the video but adding a VO, then making a few final additions but also adding my channel watermark.
