    A 50 minute video lesson turned into 2 hours of learning. I have been using iMovie for years and have done well with it. I have had FCP for a year and now have the time to start to learn it. FCP has a learning curve and your video helped tremendously. Thank you.
    Glad I can watch on my iPad Pro and edit on the Mac. Top tip for anyone else doing this. Allowed me to watch pause and edit.

  • @michaelnelson1803
    @michaelnelson1803 Před 7 měsíci +7

    I’m new to editing. I watched several videos for beginners for Final Cut and this is the best I’ve watched; careful and detailed explanations, clear and precise demonstrations. Whether you’re new to Final Cut or looking for additional techniques this is the video of choice.

  • @morningstarradio
    @morningstarradio Před 2 lety +9

    Explained topically, systematically and incrementally better than ANY FCPX tutorial I have seen - and I have seen dozens. "line upon line; precept upon precept." Great care was taken to direct the viewer through each step, applying a clean slate as he moved through different skill sets. Without question I will pursue more teaching from this man.

  • @messyfilms6325
    @messyfilms6325 Před 2 lety +3

    Me and my son have been using final cut for quite a few years now but I’m still watching and will have him watch. A lot of little things you don’t think about are nice to be reminded of.

  • @GameSack

  • @bottlebrushmedia
    @bottlebrushmedia Před rokem +2

    Even though I've been using FCPX for more than ten years I did learn quite a few new tricks from this film. It's one of the clearest and simplest guides I have seen on youtube for editing with FCPX. Very well done!!

  • @aaronworks
    @aaronworks Před rokem +5

    Thank you for this concise and well-developed tutorial. While I’ve owned FCPX for a few years, I never felt like I was learning a good workflow for video production with it. This has been the BEST hour of training that I’ve ever had. I look forward to applying these skills to future projects. Now looking into your Motion tutorials to learn how to use that application effectively. Thank you very much!

    "Because I'm old school, I prefer hiding [jump cuts]." I knew there was something I liked about you! This was my first FCP tutorial and I'm glad I found it. This was very helpful and I will go to you first if I need more instruction. Also, I like that your cover images for your videos aren't those "dopey face" ones, which was another reason I chose yours first.

    I am relatively new into FCP, but have been using iMovie for 20 years. I upgraded due to the power of the program and the power of my newish MacBook Pro. I have not been using FCP just because I didn't understand it as well as iMovie and seems way more complicated. This is a GREAT overview on how to use the program simply and got me over the hump to using FCP full-time. Thank you!!

  • @Iverson-dl5rt
    @Iverson-dl5rt Před 5 měsíci

    I want to thank you for posting this video. I had a video production class that demanded students to learn final cut pro. Your tutorial was very helpful and clear to understand. Unlike most Final cut tutorials you did not rush through it and somehow you knew what a beginner like myself needed to use effectively. I received a high grade in my College Level Video production class because I studied your video extensively. Thank You.

  • @mikeonhisbikes

    @ericrobinson8078 Před 7 měsíci

    Talk about a blast from the past. Looks like Steve has more grey in his beard and Ive less hair on my head. I used to watch Steve and his buddy(name slips my mind) way back in 2006 till around 2010. the tutorials on both Motion and FCP pre-X they produced were amazing and very entertaining to boot. Ive long since retired doing mainly photography, but my new SonyA7R5 with its 10bit Slog video have lured me back in. Hence my need to seek help and assistance from Steve and ripple training to update my Final Cut skills..

      however, I got stuck in one thing and would like to ask a question-
      after creating my multitrack single file, I accidently double clicked it and "opened" all the files inside, and now I cant seem to "close" it and continue editing the multicam file. What can I do? where can I find the anser for this? Thanks a lot

    This is just brilliant, and proves to me just how much time and angst I had wasted on Premiere Pro. Fed up with the zillions of PP menus, I kept secretly sneaking back to iMovie for simple edits and watching this and following along has sold me on moving fully to FCP (and eschewing any Avid alternative). Thanks so much from London, England!

    Hello from a complete newbie - never used any editing software before.
    Out of all the free "tutorial" videos I have seen about using the basics of FCP...YOU WERE THE BEST! IT WAS THE EASIEST AND MOST METHODICAL!
    You took the time not only with the process...you named the different tools with explanations and you gave the shortcuts for them as well.
    YOU HAVE ALLEVIATED ALL MY BUILT UP ANXIETY!
    I will be signing up for your course(s).

Been away for a while and as they are young adults now, I am thinking of tackling the enormous task of going through 30 years of video and photos and creating 4-5 min. vids. Your generosity of providing these tutorials, helps to motivate and make the creation process much more enjoyable. Your efforts really do make a difference.

    @biggerterry Před 2 lety +1

    Bravo! A few minutes ago I cancelled my subscription to a skill sharing website because they failed to deliver anything comparable to this free class and the full tutorial you also offer.
    The distinction is quality, course planning, preparation, delivery, and pacing. You have it, they don't. You supply the course materials so I can follow along. Of course!
    My only suggestion - to students - is to try to have a dual monitor configuration when you take the course. That way, you can pause and try something, then continue. Or back up and review what was missed.
    A tiny bit about me. I'm pretty familiar with Pinnacle Studio Ultimate on Windows but am entirely new to Final Cut Pro and the Mac OS. So, in my case, I know what needs to be done, I just don't know how to do it with Mac OS and Final Cut Pro. Especially the keyboard shortcuts which are so much more important in Final Cut Pro.
    Thanks for the excellent tutorial.
