Thank you. I finally understand HDR. I use my iPhone as 2nd or 3rd camera on shoots with Canon R5 and Sony FS5. It seems like I should disable HDR for easier workflow, better intercutting? I liked and subscribed!
Hum, this is odd. I’m also using the 10.6.3 version and I can find the HDR tools effect in my Effect Library. Have you, perhaps, mistaken the Effect tab and the Transition tab? They’re right next to each other in the lower eight hand corner (it happens to me sometimes 😅). Otherwise, I’m not really sure what’s the problem… You might want to try to uninstall and reinstall FCPX? Hope this helps!
Well, welcome! It has nothing to do with the laptop you use, Final Cut Pro works on every Apple laptops. Most of the time you won’t have to adjust colors and exposure but in some situations you might need to slightly do so. Hope that helps 😉
What about titles and transitions? Mine are grey and the only way to solve is to improve the brightness. Unfortunately this solution is not applicable every time; for example on more structured titles or on the transitions it doesn’t works.
For titles, you need to : select the title go to your inspector tab to the right, go to the color correction tab and bring up the master exposure. When it comes to transitions, it just doesn't work. I've done some research about it and I couldn't find any solution, I know there are a lot of people have issues with transitions unfortunately! Hope this helps.
@@jordangraphy thanks. I’ve done this on title when it’s possible but with very structured titles like lenofx it’s not a solution. I’m trying to modify in motion and something works well.
@@jordangraphy basically it's not a solution. I've got more than 3000 effects, it's crazy to think to change one by one. On top of this, I don't understand if it's possible no-one has mine same problem. On the web I don't find anything. It seems like I'm the only one to work in HDR with an iPhone and the only one who are trying to put some effects. I'm trying to contact LenoFX also to have a support but they don't answer to my mail.
@@84roller84 I’m sorry to hear that. Hope you’ll find something. If you do find a solution and don’t mind putting it here as comment to help people that might struggle with the same issue, that’d be awesome and much appreciated 🙌🏻
very helpful, thank you. i didn't understand everything about the color correcting after the hdr effect is applied but maybe i can work something out on my own or look for another video lol
Thanks Mariah, glad to hear that! I’m just mentioning that after dealing with the HDR part you can always adjust your exposure and color grade your footage :)
Wether in photo or video, the HDR function/mode consists in capturing different exposures and mixing them together in order for your images (photos or video) to have the most information as possible.
@@jordangraphy sorry but that's plain wrong. HDR images capture multiple exposures. HDR video on the other hand uses a single exposure like normal SDR video, it just uses wide color gamuts, different gamma and high luminance values for a more realistic rendition. With HDR you can display the wide dynamic range (12-17 stops) of your sensor. In SDR it gets compressed into 5-7 stops of dynamic range. HDR has 12-15 stops of dynamic range.
How do you take the time to make this video to show how to fix it and show the simplest things in detail everyone knows with the hdr tools yet you fast forward the color correction which would be the most important item of this video? You’re doing the color corrections needed, why would you not show us that and explain? you literally fast forward through the one part everyone needs.
Because everyone’s clips will be different and this video is focused on HDR, not color correction. Once the HDR tool is applied, you only need to re adjust your exposure. I do have a video specifically dedicated to that if you want to have a look and learn how to correct your exposure in Final Cut Pro.
@@jordangraphy why are my colors and brightness not remotely what they are after I use the hdr tools? It improves the washout but it’s still kind of gray and dark.
Then I’d try to play around with the color correction (bringing down the highlights as much as possible). Otherwise, I wouldn’t recommend shooting in HDR if you are planning to edit the footage in Final Cut Pro. Hope this helps ✌🏻
You can use the HDR Tools effect and then select the HLG to Rec. 709 SDR in the video inspector and use an adjustment layer in Final Cut Pro if you have multiple clips. Hopefully that helps. That’s what I recommend
Misinformation! You have to use HLG to REC 709 and not HDR to REC 709. And use proxy in 2023???!!! I’m using an MacBook Pro with M1 Pro and I have no issues editing 4K 60fps HDR 10bit 4.0.2 200mbps, or 400mbps all intra, or 6k…
You need to select HLG to Rec 709 in the HDR tools for correct tone mapping to SDR
Excellent! Finally, someone who gets right to the point. Easy to understand and your tutorials worked perfectly! Of course I liked & subscribed!
Thanks Randy, glad you liked it and I really appreciate the compliments!

Shoot video in HDR in order to then reduce the video quality to SDR, how nice of FCPX. Even the editing program Cup Cut does an excellent job with HDR
Needed this. Thanks man!
Im in final cut 10.6.3 and for some reason I dont have the HDR tools effect. Any suggestions?

to the right of 4k only select installed effects
Hello brother . i am new here. its just a HDR tool on MacBook? and don't need us edit color or ....?
and which model of MacBook can processes? thank you so much because i wantt make my video vlog to hdr

Love the video!!!
Thanks Jordan such a great helps and very useful! :)
You’re very welcome, thanks for letting me know!
@@jordangraphy I'm new to FCP so this was invaluable!

Your are a life saver!
Hi Great Video Thanks! But i don't have an HDR selection in my final cut?
Thanks! Hum, are you using the latest version of FCPX?
good one keep it up
the definition of HDR video is completely different from HDR imagine. What you have described is for the HDR photo I believe, not HDR video...

Actually this shows how to covert HDR content intoä SDR content.
did not solve anything, still overexposed

Bro, this is not a viable solution. My footage looks horrible.
The best solution is to NOT record in HDR if you want to edit the footage afterwards haha

It took way too long too get to the point. Thanks anyway though
