This is not much of a problem as you need only go up the Final Cut's View/ Sequence and now the Twixtor parameters will show up for you to adjust.

If you attempt to double click on the extended sequence in order to bring up the Twixtor parameters in the Viewer, you will only get the original nested sequence. Create another new sequence and drag this extended sequence into it. You then duplicate that sequence into a new sequence two or three times. This is done by placing the clip whose duration you wish to alter in a new sequence. Again, this is because of Final Cut's not allowing plug-ins to affect the duration of the original clip. You can change the mode to a 'frames' configuration.Ĭreating a slow motion effect is a bit more complicated than simply adjusting speed. Most editors are used to working in a time-code mode as shown here.īy right clicking in the space between the time-code window and the sequence The other, and easier, alternative is to do your speed ramping by simply key framing the percentages of your Twixtor placed clip.

However, keep in mind that if you are altering the speed of clip using frames, you should change the time code display to the right of the RT drop-down menu to frames, and knowing exactly which frame your clip begins on and each frame number where you intend to change the speed is imperative. If you need to time remap a clip's speed by specific frames that is also possible. The sped up clip, once rendered, will display many black frames that take the place of duration of the original clip.įinding the last good frame and blading off the black is a piece of cake. This is simple to deal with as all you need do is find the last good frame of the speeded up clip and use the blade tool to cut the unwanted black portion of the clip. Because the duration of the clip with Twixtor applied cannot be changed, once the clip is rendered and played back, the part of the duration that under Final Cut would have been shortened, will play back as black. If you want the clip to be twice as fast, you would set it at 200%. In the Twixtor parameters found in the Viewer's Filter's tab, you need only to adjust the percentage of the clip found under the filter's Output Control with the Time Remap Mode's drop-down menu set to 'speed'. Speeding up a clip by a specific percentage is quite easy.

The Twixtor Pro plug-in has many more parameters for you to work with. You will have to work around this limitation.Īll the settings you need to create slow motion or speeded effects are contained in the Twixtor FX plug in for Final Cut Pro shown here. When using Twixtor to change the speed of a clip, the length of the clip on the timeline will remain the same. This is not to say the Final Cut's speed tools were not improved in Studio 3 but, from what I can see and test, it does not perform quite as well as Re:Vision's Twixtor.Īt the same time, Twixtor can be a bit more complicated to utilize than the 'speed tool' features found in Final Cut Pro.įor third party plug-ins like Re:Vision's Twixtor, Final Cut Pro can not enable the length of the clip on the timeline to reflect the change made to the speed of that clip. Twixtor does for time remapping whether for slow motion or speed remapping footage what the new time remapping functions in Final Cut Studio aspires to. Re:Vision's Twixtor Version, Version 5, is now completely compatible with both Final Cut Pro and Adobe's CS5 but are separate purchases unless both the plug-ins for AE and FCP are purchased as a set. Unfortunately, I was so busy with traveling demands, reviews and projects that I never even got around to installing and using it. To be completely honest I received Twixtor version 4 a few years ago.
