FCP Workshops or classes
Hello I was wondering If anyone knew of any recources for learing FCP, not so much Editing, but more the use of the software. I am past the basic level, I have been using it for about 4 years. I am Working in a Motion Graphics house, I dont do alot of actual cutting, but working alot with FCP for designers. I was wondering if anyone knew of any workshops or classes that wold be designed for the intermediate user of FCP. I looked into Apples Training program, but it offers more information about editing technique which I do not desire. If you have any suggestions, I live in the NYC area.
Thanks -

HI Jon,
I don’t think you’ll find much luck in what you are looking for.
Actually it doesn’t really make a lot of sense.
You want to learn more about FCP (which is design from the ground up as an editing program), but you don’t want to learn the ‘editing’ for FCP? 😛
I can tell you that the Apple Certification Program teaches you a lot about FCP, without teaching you much about editing. It uses examples and tutorials that are based on editing situations so you can understand the functions, but it’s not an editing class.It sounds like you interact with FCP more as a motion graphics tool? if so, then some tutorials on Livetype and Motion might be closer to what you are looking for. Also there are a couple of tutorials on moving images with FCP that would probably help with what you want to know.
Good Luck,
