  • Adjusting length of custom Motion title, affects speed of title animation

    Posted by Brian Cassin on May 6, 2014 at 7:26 pm

    Hi there,

    I just made a custom animated title in Motion to be used in FCPX.

    It has an animation that lasts about 15 frames, which starts 2 seconds into the title.

    The problem is when I add the title to the timeline in FCPX and trim it to a shorter duration, it affects the length of the animation by making it faster. I.e. faster than 15 frames. Is there a way to change this behaviour?
