My biggest complaint with TH-cam videos is that the people do way too much talking and very little action. It's not that case with you Dylan. Fantastic video just what I needed.

[@mikerisner]

Wow! These are great features to add to a slide show that will make it truly professional. And the couple behind Affinity Revolution are just so dang charming.

[@FloatingOnAZephyr]

This is just superb. The markers trick is so simple but so clever. I didn’t know you could alter the slideshow transition images that way! Thanks again!

[@joewardpr]

Hi Dylan, random idea for you. I was looking around for a "slot machine" effect. You know the old school machine that spin three barrels, and then randomly stop one of the symbols. If the three match up, you win something. I couldn't really find much in the Final Cut Pro realm for it. Basically, multiple drop zones, one of which is predetermined to complete the animation for each. The closest I found was a vertical scrolling plugin that supported 7 drop boxes. Putting three of them side by side might achieve the effect, playing with speed in, speed out, and some nice sound effects. In any event, something like that might make a neat Motion tutorial and/or a cool addition to your Patreon. I'm sure you'd jazz it up with start and end acceleration, overshooting, and motion blur. Not sure if folks just haven't done something like this for Motion/FCP, or if I just missed it in my cursory search. I commented on your slideshow, because my thought is that it's essentially a vertical slideshow of a stack of images with some changes in acceleration (and a much faster speed, of course).

[@GolfQuestChannel]

It's amazing how many subtle tricks you give in these videos. Great stuff.

[@lavinchi6709]

Beautiful tutorial!!!Grazie mille,Dylan!!!One of the best video I ever seen

[@williamburkholder769]

You just saved me hours of manually adjusting timing and effects. THANK-YOU.

[@elmono3939]

Super cool ! These basic tricks make things happen. Thank you for sharing these tips with us !

[@adg8269]

Amazing, so much info in a short and sweet videobyte!

[@AKAwafan]

The Guassian blur effect is exactly what I was looking for! I didn't know the name of it because I'm new to video editing. I cannot thank you enough!! :)

[@PatrickMastersProductions]

Mind blown again!!!!!!! You have blown my mind so much I might have CTE at this point.

[@lulux9795]

This was so helpful! thank you! other videos were too fast and tedious compared to yours which is straight forward. ilove my ss.

[@Richard_Broom_Photography]

Thank you very much Dylan. Another very useful tutorial. Scotland rocks to your tune!

[@stevenjoseph9979]

I tried it and it worked out just fine. Thanks Dylan

[@TravelAddictsLife]

Thank you Dylan for another great tutorial!

[@reynoldlambert]

This is simple and amazing, thank you bro!

[@bwilesuk]

Great timing. I need to make a slideshow! I’ll try the overlay with paper

[@TheFinalCutBro]

I knew you would need it soon. 😉

[@realmattjc]

Thanks bud. I will be using this method soon. Much respect for your work 🙏

[@RonaldBrown59]

You always do great tutorials. I didn't even realize you could create a slideshow in Final Cut. But I'm going to creating one now. Thanks for sharing Dylan.

[@alexanderkaiser2855]

😮fantastic explanation!

[@StuartHetzler]

did not know about ctrl D. Thanks!

[@CasualLeaves]

Thank you for this tutorial

[@travel_paradise]

Cool, easy peasy...thank you Dylan

[@englishwithmaria]

Dylan, that was a great video, and well-timed for me as I'm editing some photos right now.
Am I the only one who would have loved to have seen the slide show at the end of the video?

[@SomnathNagawade]

Great stuff !

[@nepalisite]

This will work if you have few photos. Will be very tough if you have over 100 photos (vertical and horizontal). Ken Burns will also not work for all the photos.

[@morganwu5561]

this was amazing. thank you!

[@njbestvideo5977]

Well done...

[@DacostaVieira]

Woah this is genius ! Thanks

[@JosephSlinker]

Killing it as always! I love it.

[@Piczoid]

Hey Dylan, I used your techniques here to make my latest video and it looks awesome! The feedback on it so far is limited because my channel is so new, but but I've heard some very positive things from people who contributed images. Also, unrelated, I use your Zooms plugin constantly. Amazing stuff! Thanks

[@JimiCeleste]

[@jeffarballo1881]

Ok That was really cool

[@odaykooza5270]

Nice

[@user-cc7ts9kv2o]

Excellent

[@chithranframes6452]

Wow... it Super👍🏻

[@alejmc]

What the heck.. ok, I was totally blown by:
- crop ken burns multi selection applies random ones automatically!
- those photo/picker handlers on the transition. That can’t be done with Motion as of now can you? Apple is cheating there.

[@artincorona]

Excellent video however when I tried to add transitions i had a pop up say not enough media beyond the clip edge....etc, but I chose to create it anyway but for some reason the transition isn't created. My clips are also 4 seconds long. Any ideas what's happening?

[@TheFinalCutBro]

I’m curious are you applying the transitions onto photos or videos? And if it’s photos, are they in a compound clip?
This warning usually pops up with the beginning of a video doesn’t have enough media to cover a transition. An easy way to fix that is to either trim the beginning of the clip (so it can pull from the trimmed media) or to press T then click and drag on the clip so you slide the media to a later point in time.
However, if it’s in a compound clip, you can double click on the compound clip. Then extend the photo / video to be much longer so you have enough media to work with. Then you can follow the earlier steps of trimming / sliding with T.
Hope that makes sense!

[@philbrockbank4722]

Great tutorial, thanks. It all worked well for me until the part where you added extra photos around 7:12 point. My photos were added, but didn't pick up any of the attributes that the original photos have, such as Ken Burns, have I missed a step?

[@swizzlebeatstv]

You might just need to select and copy the original photo (with the effects on) and then highlight the other photos and then paste the attributes again which should work.

[@JokeswithMitochondria]

Hey dylan is there any way to select two simultaneous clips in fcpx WITHOUT using mouse (keyboard shortcuts only)

[@DFPGROUP]

selecting all clips make the inspector Disappear???
