Motion 5 without FCP
I just want to be sure, you can use Motion independently of FCP, correct? In other words, can you create a project in Motion 5 and save it out for use in another program NLE besides FCP?
Thanks. -

Yes you can always just render out a movie that you can use in any NLE.

Yepp. In an “ecosystem” sense Motion is to FCP what After Effects is to Premiere… more or less. 😉 As with AE, you can use any and all independently. But in conjunction with i.e. in the context of FCP X is where Motion can/will really shine.

You can do this. I have even created a more complex background with After Effects, rendered out a movie and then import into Motion for further work. In my honest opinion, to get the most of out of Motion one does need Final Cut Pro X as well. I guess the same could be argued about After Effects and Premiere Pro, my two cents whatever it is worth.

There are some AE users for whom the rest of the Premiere suite is just an expensive dongle:-)
