![]() Too add another layer to the fun and quirky add-ons for FCPX the FxFactory developer Stupid Raisins has created Symbol Pop. Some of the mBehaviors have Published Parameters where they can be tweaked from the default, others do not so it’ll take some time to get to know them well … but you’ll have fun in the process.Ī lot of the mBehaviors are goofy stuff like bounces, wobbles and even a Tetris In and Out so they might be of limited usefulness in a lot of productions but if you’re doing “quirky” stuff mBehavior could quickly become indispensable in the time they save. Plus the mBehaviors can be stacked to create a lot of fun stuff. If you want to change the behaviors step into the Compound Clip and make adjustments there. That will create the proper alpha channel to use these things as transitions. To make mBehavior work to its full potential you create a Compound Clip out of the mBehavior titles and what you are trying to animate. I think where these will be most useful is in titles and graphics. As you can see in the video you apply them as a title above what you want to animate and the animation happens on the clip below. These behaviors are all Titles in the FCPX effects browser which threw me at first. It’s simple in concept and looks like it could save a lot of time: $49 for 150 presets of keyframeless animations. I don’t think that the folks from Motion VFX made the trip to California for the Summit but they have released a fun little product for FCPX called mBehavior. There’s been several comments on Twitter that people would love to see some Adobe Premiere Pro integration (and we can assume Avid too) so hopefully that’s not far behind. Frame.io is very new and they have been adding features since launch. I’m going to speculate here that there will be more options added to this FCPX integration in the future. This points toward Frame.io’s intent to be more than just a review and approval service to have clients sign off on an edit. There’s some good options to choose in either exporting the timeline as an edit or exporting individual clips. You download the application from the Mac App Store and it installs a share option when exporting. The folks at Frame.io have introduced a Final Cut Pro X Share extension for their collaboration service. Add that to other new tools and we’ve got a fresh edition of Useful Tools for Editors. I kept up with the event via social media and there were a number of new product announcements out and around the Summit. I wanted to go but previously booked work took me to the other end of the country. It looks like it was a great weekend with a ton of socializing and learning about all things FCPX. ![]() The first ever Final Cut Pro X Creative Summit has come to an end out in San Jose, California. ![]() ![]() ![]()
