    I am a newbie at this posting stuff, but I need help with creting 15-30 second loops in Motion. I really like alot of the effects you can create but I cannot figure out how to get the last frame to loop back to the frst frame in a smooth and believable fashion. Thanks for the help and please tell me if this isn’t the place to post this sort of thing…I just need the help.

    Have you tried the old trick of slicing the clip in the middle in FCP, swapping the order and then doing a dissolve?

    I’ll try it out, but usually the cross dissolve can be picked up by the naked eye. Some of these patterns are so drastic that I fear even with the dissolve that it wouldn’t be seamless looking…thanks for the tip. I’m going right now to try it out.
