Diagonal Cropping in Final Cut Pro
Is there a way to make a diagonal crop in Final Cut Pro? I don’t want to morph the image, I just want to make a straight diagonal cut across a square frame. Thanks in advance,

Use the matte filter.

One reasonably quick way is to put a “Four-Point Garbage Matte” effect on the clip, then move one of the corner points to the next corener, so if you move point 1 (top left) to coincide with point 4 (bottom left) you’d be cutting out the top left hand portion of the picture.
