This is the parameter that will show up in the Inspector of Final Cut Pro X when the plugin has been finished. Right Click on Strobe Rate in the Inspector and select Publish from the drop down menu.Ĭheck the parameter has been published by selecting Project in the Layer list and then Project again from the four headings of the Inspector. You will see the adjustment parameters open up in the Inspector on the left hand side. You can drag it straight on to the new Group that was just created.Ĭlick on the Strobe filter on new Group. This leaves the original Group and Effect Clip untouched which can be useful when we come to making Clone Layers.Īpply the Strobe effect which can be found in the Time category from the Filters section in the Library. This will put the Group into another Group. Right click on the Group in the Layers panel and select Group. It won't do much as we haven't added any image processing or grading yet, so here is where the fun starts! This effect plugin will now be in the Effects Browser the next time you open Final Cut Pro X. Then click the Publish button, don't worry about the other settings. You can make a new category for your effects, here we have entered IR TUTORIALS. Choose the name of the effect, we have entered Bourne Flashback and the category. This will bring up the Edit Marker panel, select Project Loop End from the type of marker available. Right click on the marker in the timeline and then choose Edit Marker from the dropdown menu. If the marker keeps applying itself to the clip, you need to deselect the clip in the layer list or click away in the timeline. Navigate to the end of the project and hit M to set a marker on the timeline, not the clip. The Effect Source clip you can see in the timeline is a placeholder for the clip that the effect will be applied to when using the Motion project as a plugin back in Final Cut Pro X. Normally when you build effects for Final Cut Pro X they would be much shorter, but we will be adding a temporal effect later which will make a difference.
It is important though to set the duration of the effect, for this effect we will make it 1.00.00 - a minute. No need to worry if you are going to use this in a 4K or different frame rate FCPX timeline - The effect will adapt without any quality loss. Then make sure Broadcast HD 1080 and 29.97 are chosen from the dropdown menus on the left hand side. However, if you would like have a go yourself, (and for free!) let's fire up Motion and get going. If you don't want to buy Motion, or don't want to build the app from scratch, you can find the Bourne Flashback Effect on our store for immediate download. It unlocks unlimited creative opportunities to build your own graphics, effects, titles and transitions for FCPX. If you haven't bought it already, we highly recommend you own Motion, Apple's $49 motion graphics app. You could build the look directly in FCPX, but for this rather complicated grade, we are going to use Motion to build an effect plugin.
Each excerpt features a heavily graded look that we are going to replicate as an effect for Final Cut Pro X.
