  I thought X to Motion would be nicer

  Posted by Richard Herd on April 17, 2013 at 8:22 pm

  It’s not working how I hoped. Cut some green screen footage, now I want to key it in motion, involving a very small amount of rotoscoping.

  Is there a way to get the cut from X into Motion? Dynamic link FCPX/MOtion version?

  Thanks!

  There’s no dynamic link between FCPX and Motion. You can export whatever clips need some roto work with the third party ClipExporter app although it’s a bit fiddly and I’ll be the first to say it’d be great if Apple gave us an easier way..

  if there’s no masking/Rotao work then the keyer in FCPX is the same as the one in motion so there’s very little advantage in sending it there.
