    [smuggla2002] “What is the best way to bring photoshop Text Graphics into FCP? I have tried exporting as Jpeg at 720X480 and it still looks pixilated once it renders in FCP.”

    Do you have an external monitor? You cannot judge the quality of any graphic or video using the Viewer / Canvas windows of FCP on a computer screen. These images are degraded, you must use an external monitor.

    I either create all my text graphics using the Boris Text 3D title tool or Photoshop. When using Photoshop, I simply leave the file as a PSD file and import that.
