FCP X: Instant Replay Effect [video]

[This is an excerpt from a recent on-line video webinar: “FCP X: Clip Speed Effects” which you can download in our store, or as part of our Video Training Library.]

Changing clip speed (also called “retiming”) can create dramatic effects – from high-speed time-lapse to extreme slow motion. Final Cut Pro X provides a wide-variety of techniques to change the speed of a clip, including:

• Freeze frames and hold frames
• Replace and Retime a Clip to Fit
• Fast- and Slow-motion
• Conform clip speed
• Variable speed changes
• Special speed effects

During this session, Larry Jordan illustrates dozens of ways to change the speed of a clip, starting with a very simple hold frame in the Timeline, then moving into far more flexible – and weird – speed effects.

In this short video excerpt Larry shows how to create an Instant Replay speed effect.
