Customize Titles & Generators

Occasionally, the titles and generators built into Final Cut Pro X aren’t exactly what you’re looking for. Rather than spending time creating them from scratch, you’ll learn how to open and modify them in Motion to perfectly suit the needs of your project.

Create Custom Effects

We show you how to make your own custom effects, transitions and animated backgrounds in Motion that you can publish for use in Final Cut Pro X. With only a few simple steps, you’ll learn how to expand your creative options while making your videos stand out from the rest.

Track Your Subjects

Learn how you can leverage Motion to create visual effects like replacing a screen, tracking and blurring objects like faces and license plates, and how to replace a bad pixel, or completely remove an object from a shot.

Create Write-On Effects

Motion will allow you to create animated titles that can be whimsical or dramatic. For example, you’ll learn how to use Behaviors and Masks to reveal different parts of your titles to give them a bold entrance.
