Switching format without messing up keyframes?
Hi again! Here comes another lovely question ?
Let’s see if I can explain this..
Let’s say I made a video in a 1920 x 1080 project and then wants to put it in a 1080 x 1080 timeline without making all the keyframes and effects get all messed up. How do I do that? I’ve tried to make a compound clip of all the scenes and then copy and paste it, but it still doesnt work :/
The reason for this is because I want a 1080 x 1080 format but with a 1920 x 1080 so the background is all black.
I know that you could export the whole video and then import it again in FCPX but then it would lose some quality but I hope there is a better option.
Hope my explanation made sense. Please let me know ☺

Not sure if this is what you’re intending, but in the past, I’ve duplicated my project and just changed the format to say, square for social. Some shots needed repo to center, but all else in project stayed same.

Just reread… I think if you do the duplicate thing above, make the new square project TL a compound clip, and put that compound clip on a 1920 TL it should work.

Other thing to do is put a square crop on one shot in orig TL, copy it, and paste that formatting on all the clips.
