Final Cut Pro ease in/out for moving and zooming picture?
I’ve got a large graphic file that i’m zooming into and moving on the screen. I want to ease in/out the movement and have the movement finish before the zoom finishes. Anyone know a way to do this? Currently the movement is linear, and if i do ease in/out on that it eases in and out on the path as well as the “velocity” of the picture. I want the path to stay linear or exactly how I have it and I want ease in/out to only be applied to the velocity” of the picture. Does this make sense and is it possible in final cut or do I have to go to after effects?

Control-click on the center point keyframes in the timeline and select ease in/ease out.
All the best,

You can ease in and out on some keyframes, but not all. Bit of a pain sometimes.
Motion is really good for doing this like this too.

Sorry Tom…
My son actually typed that.
I would NEVER type something that I didn’t actually check out in FCP first… I would NEVER rest on what I BELIEVED to be true… and finally — I would NEVER type in anger over a fix I wish Apple would have fixed YEARS ago… no, I wouldn’t type like that — he’s only 5… and he runs the sound anyway.
No… all kidding aside: To answer YOUR queston… Motion: Center.
To answer MY question… although you cannot adjust easy in in the TIMELINE (either sequence or viewer timelines) for center — you CAN (wow, didn’t know this!!) adjust it in the CANVAS window. Very cool little beizer handle with a slider dot too for speed.
Very nice.
Thanks Tom — I should call you Rabbi… the teacher forces the student to find for themselves.
