Topic: Hidden Selection Tools in FCP’s Timeline

The number one interface rule for Final Cut Pro is: “Select something, then do something to it.” (OK, it may not be as deep as: “I think, therefore I am,” but this is still true.)

The problem is in figuring out how to select stuff. In this short, focused, video tutorial Larry Jordan shows you eight different selection tools in Final Cut that can make your life a lot easier. Discover how the Edit, Group, Range, and Track selection tools work, the keyboard shortcuts you can use to extend their reach, and hidden tips that can increase their power.



If you tend to work with longer and larger projects, you’ll find these tools will quickly become some of your favorites.
