  Laptimer effect for fcpx

  Posted by Matthew Avis on November 22, 2011 at 3:34 pm

  Hi Guys

  Hoping someone can help, i need to create a lap timer looking graphic to use in fcpx

  it will be a graphic placed in the top right corner of the screen and needs to be able to go unto 3minutes

  Im trying to create a counter that i can use to show each lap but only 1 lap at a time needs to be seen?

  I’m thinking a stopwatch type effect tried using motion 5 with an adapted timecode counter but its not working that well

  any ideas?

  Thanks

  Matt

  X has a generate time code function built in.
  (in the Generators area under Elements)

  Pop it over black (or anything you like) then crop, range and export it as a separate element you can re- use to your hearts content.
