Over the course of its over ten-year history, Final Cut Pro has become the video editor of choice across all levels of video production, from independent filmmakers to episodic broadcast TV and feature film. With the latest release, Final Cut Pro X, Apple has redesigned the application from the ground up — making it more approachable and easier to learn and use, while still providing many of the features professionals need. In this Learn by Video workshop published in partnership with Peachpit Press, Joseph Linaschke takes you through the basics of Final Cut Pro X to get you ready to start editing as quickly as possible. You’ll learn the fundamentals of video editing while also getting up to speed on advanced features like auto shot-detection, keyword ranges, auto color balance and matching, auto stabilization analysis, and much more. This course was recorded with FCPX version 10.0.1.
