This looks like an interesting plug-in for all of you Final Cut Pro users. From The Final Cut Pro.com, get all of the details on the YouSendIt Final Cut Pro Export Plug-in.

I’m wondering why Apple hasn’t built this in, perhaps utilizing their .mac/MobileMe?

How to make a split screen without a green screen

Published by Michele Yamazaki on November 17th, 2008 - in Adobe, After Effects, Final Cut Pro, Tutorial, Video

Bill Cammack, an internet friend and New Yorker, shows you how to create a duplicate of yourself, sort of like the Parent Trap or Patty Duke (wasn’t it Patty Duke who had the identical cousin?) The tutorial shows you how to do it in FCP, but it’s exactly the same method in After Effects.

Okay, I found the Patty Duke Show open so all you youngsters don’t think I’m crazy.

Free closing credits plugin for Final Cut

Published by Michele Yamazaki on November 6th, 2008 - in Final Cut Pro, Plug-ins

Download Alex Gollner’s free Final Cut Pro credits plug-in.

Here is my free plugin to help create closing credits scrolls using Final Cut. I found that ‘Scrolling Text’ was limited in that it uses the same font, font size, colour and spacing for all the text. The timing is difficult to control as it animates based on the in and out points of the generator.

The Boris equivalent (Title Crawl) gives more control over timing because there is the option of animating by keyframing the ‘% complete’ value. It also offers better type options, but it is difficult to change the look of all the job titles, people’s names or headings at the same time.
