    Hello Everybody

    I am another brand new user of final cut.
    Trying to add footage which contain some logos that i would like to cut it out. Please let me know if there is any thing i can do. I understand i can blur it , but i want to know if possible to cut it out.

    Thank you !!

    Hi Val.
    Welcome to the COW.
    The options you have is to blow the picture up, so the Logo gets out of frame.
    This will degrade the picture for sure.
    Blur or putting something on top are the two remaining options.
    Cheers,
    rafael

    The blur thing is overused. As Rafael suggested, put something on top with a soft edge. Even if you just match the color or put a black patch over the logo is typically less distracting than a blur.
