  • Final Cut Pro 7 Transitions Not Working On A Reversed Clip

    Posted by Matthew Green on August 20, 2014 at 1:25 pm

    I have noticed that everytime I try and add a transition to a clip I have sped up, slowed down or reversed. Final Cut Pro doesnt let me add it in, is there a reason for this? and how can I change it?

    Have enough handles to allow for this?

    I am quite new to using final cut pro 7, so what do you mean by the term ‘handles’

    thanks

    Handles refers to a margin of a few extra seconds of footage on the ends a clip, enough to cover a transition. If the handles are not long enough, you can’t make the transition work because you run out of frames before the transition is completed.
