about splicing a clip with keyframe
Dear all,
I just notice that when I have keyframe in the basic motion tap, after splicing the clip into two or more segments, each segments still reference to the original clip with keyframe. This is really bothersome, when i want to keyframe the next clip.
is there a way around this?
I am doing this because i have some HD footage that i’m trying to manipulate in a SD sequence, so there’s a lot of panning and scaling going on.
Thanks,
CW

i think i just found out. select the new clip, in the viewer click on the x to reset all parameters. This takes the reference to the previous clip away. However, the clip has been reset to the original size and to its center position; which means i have to readjust the clip to match the previous clip…

Can’t have it both ways. How did you want Final Cut to react? Upon second insertion or splitting of the clip, did you want FCP to reset the clip and all it’s keyframes? It can’t magically figure out what you want to do.
If perhaps all your clips need to be scaled up and centered, then do that. Then insert into timeline. Then on each clip, double click and add the panning motion. But if you do it to the master clip, then put that in the timeline and slice it up or insert it multiple times (same thing essentially) how does it know when or when not to use the parameters you gave it?
Make sense? HTH
