Here is how to make Instagram sized videos in fcpx 10.1
If anyone has a better solution let me know, but this works for me!
This is what I do (i read somewhere on the internet) open Motion, make a 1000×1000 project, then make sure it’s set to “square”, set length for 15 secs, then export it from motion, import it into a final cut click “open in timeline” and walaa, your video is now a perfect instagram size, here is an example from our instagram:

Why wouldn’t you just make a 1000×1000 final cut project?

Hey Bret,
I only see dimensions of 1920×1080, 1440×1080 and 1280×1080, correct me if I am missing something here

Choose custom and type in whatever dimensions you like. Wasn’t always that way, but it did change awhile back.

Haha i didn’t even notice that! Dumb me! Old habits… Thanks Bret!

I had to figure this out for myself today and here is how I did it:
1) Find my video clip and trim to appropriate length .
2) New project with Dimensions of 640×640
3) drop clip in new project , in the inspector go to video- spatial conform, choose fill
4) In the viewer – select 50% view, then transform and position 1920-1080 video for desired crop by 640×640 window
5 Add graphics & Share. This could not be easier….
