Ever faced the disappointment of having average footage? You're not alone. Join me in this video as I share 4 powerful ideas to elevate your footage from bland to cinematic. No more settling for mediocrity - let's make your shots pop!
🌐 Idea #1: Tackling Busy Footage:
Discover how to focus your viewer's attention on the subject when faced with busy or distracting backgrounds. I'll guide you through using a Gaussian blur effect in Final Cut Pro, ensuring your subject takes center stage while the background fades away.

Watch as I tackle the challenge of a shot lacking visual appeal. Learn to enhance your footage using light leaks, overlays, and effects. I'll unveil some gems from MotionVFX's mStyle Cinematic plugin pack, providing a sneak peek into elevating your video production quality.
🌈 Idea #4: Elevate Dull Shots with Color Grading:
Turn a dull shot into a visual masterpiece through strategic color grading. Follow along as I demonstrate the step-by-step process, using tools like color curves, color wheels correction, and hue/saturation curves. Witness how a thoughtful color grade can transform your footage and captivate your audience.

Hi Brad, great video! I can’t believe I have a tip for you too, though…! At 2’20“ you say „then I can hit the down arrow to go to the beginning of the next shot and then the left arrow key to go back to the last frame of the shot.“ You can have that even quicker by just hitting shift-O. Then you immediately arrive at the last frame of the shot. I do that all the time: shift-I (for In) to the first frame of the shot and shift-O (for Out) to the last.
I think you just changed my life.
Thanks so much for the tip! Thats such a handy little shortcut! 😄 I like being able to quickly tap the two arrow keys without looking at my keyboard and I feel like I would need to look down at the keyboard for the Shift O shortcut but I’ll try it out for sure! Appreciate the comment 😄🙌🏼
@@TheFinalCutBroVery funny 😂 But you definitely changed mine. Of course I'm using your Truly Handheld and Pro Zooms and and and....love your videos!
You’re the most professional FCPX teacher on TH-cam 👏
Truly appreciate those kind words Marcin 😄🙏🏼
Images of my beautiful city PORTO!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤😍greetings and portugal
I love Porto! 😄❤️🇵🇹
Great tips. I've never used the Gaussion effect - I'm going to give it a try.
You should! Such a handy effect! 😄🤙🏼
Thanks! Always learning something new 🤩
Glad to hear it!
Seriously loving the sound design on this. Amazing video as always dude! Also appreciate the shout on Truly Handheld!
Thanks man! 😄🙏🏼 The FCP handheld effect is so crap! I use your truly handheld plugin often! 👊🏼💥
Killer, Brad! So, so well done. Also, mStyle Cinematic looks sick! I didn't realize they just released that.
Appreciate it bro! 👊🏼 It's a neat little pack of effects!
Brilliant, thank you. 👌🏽
You're very welcome!
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Super helpful, Brad. Thanks! The first tip was awesome. I was usually using just the focus blur to get that result but I had no idea I could use the built in tracking feature to make it way more realistic! Well done 👊
Glad it was helpful Doug! Appreciate you watching as always! 😄🙏🏼
Great timing Brad, these are excellent tips.
Glad you think so Stephen! 😄🤙🏼
@@Brad_WestThis blur method works great with all the other blurs too.
True story! Gaussian blur is just my personal favorite 😄
THX Great Tips!
Glad it was helpful!
You’re awesome man! Thank you for all the tips.
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
very helpful❤🎉💪💪💪💪
Glad you think so!
Great tips Brad! For tip #1- is it possible to save this so it can be applied to other clips?
You can certainly save the effect as an effects preset to be reused. You would need to do the tracking for each individual shot of course.
Sweet
😄👊🏼
Thanks bto
You're welcome!
There are a lot of possibilities with AI tools as well.
Yeah AI has created some new creative opportunities for editors!
02:20 Да это постоянный геморрой в FCP - стрелку вниз, потом назад. Я надеялся что просто не знаю , но более короткий способ есть. Но раз такой профессионал как ты делает так же, значит это проблема FCP((((
With the clip selected you can also use the shortcut Shift O to jump to the last frame 👍🏼
