  • Need a way to rapidly show 50+ images within 20-30 seconds

    Posted by Jeff Swearingen on May 10, 2017 at 4:16 am

    Hello — I can’t put my finger on the term for this. But essentially I need to drop in a series of 50+ stills into an FCPX project and have them quickly cycle through around 0.5 sec each.

    Any suggestions to make this efficient?

    Thanks!

    Jeff

    Select all the stills in the browser, hit E to put them in the project, select all, hit ctrl-D, enter 15 (or 12 if it’s a 24fps project) hit Enter.

    And if you need to do this regularly you can change the default duration of stills in the preferences.

    Thanks for the responses. Using Command-D and the duration was the easiest.
