Before bringing in the footage to Final Cut Pro X, it is important to get familiar with the content at your fingertips. What assets are already in Final Cut Pro X? In this video, author Nick Harauz shows you various ways to understand what you are working with before you begin to edit your footage.
- Before bringing in the footage into Final Cut,…it's important to get familiar with…the content at your fingertips.…In this movie, we'll explore various ways…to know what we're working with…before we even begin to edit the footage.…So, you can see here.…I've got my folder here, this is my project file.…It's the Final Cut Pro 10 Creating Web Video and Graphics,…and what I'm going to do is just double click it to open it.…You'll see it consist of three subfolders.…But the footage that we're working with,…there is actually a final piece…and I included that final piece for you.…Just so that you can get a sense for the end product,…and this is just a great way to get familiar…with some of the assets that we'll be working with,…and having this available to us is…going to really help guide us to what we're looking…for in the end result.…
So, you can see here,…this World of Stories final piece.…One thing I like to do,…is usually we don't get this as video editors,…but just being able again to see that,…I love to do or look at assets…
