    Don’t know if this is Motion integration. There is clearly titling animation tools built into FCP X. There is a button that seems to indicate this. It may well be a canned text animation template that’s built into FCP X, similar to the animation tools in Motion. I’m not convinced the text done there is an integrated Motion project. The icon on the timeline doesn’t look like it would be a Motion project.

    All the best,

    Tom

    Sung to the tune Moody Blue’s “Legend of a Mind”

    No, no, no, no, He’s outside looking in.
    He’ll fly his 2D plane,
    Takes you trips around the edit bay,
    Round trips back the same day,
    Live Type 2. Live Type 2.

    Ah, like the horror movie

    Just looks like iMovie and it’s templates. Doesn’t everyone know why it’s Final Cut Pro X? The last two versions of iMovie were probably internally called FCP 8 and FCP 9. But seriously, that’s how an iMovie template works. Sure would be interesting to see if motion templates work in iMovie.

    You can’t import a Motion project into iMovie.

    All the best,
