  I need a video effect that adds a drop shadow to my video.

  Is there one already in FCP X?

  Hi Robert.

  As you have discovered, drop shadow controls are not available by default in Fcpx.

  Many users have already created a preset using motion 5 and uploaded it to the forum here that gives you drop shadow control in Fcpx.

  Why it was never included by default I just know. Just a “small oversight” on apple’s behalf.

  I uploaded a preset just a few minutes ago that may do the trick as well.
