  • Questions about Motion’s Preferences

    Posted by Todd George on April 28, 2005 at 1:25 pm

    Hello all

    using Motion 1.0.1 (academic version)

    and learning the program through use of Apple Pro training books and dmts dvd tutorials

    anyway in the prefrences you can set the output antialiasing method, does this need to be done before final export of a quicktime movie file, and what about if you just create a motion project and want to open it up in fcphd?

    also in the general prefs sections, there is a button for 3rd party plugins, who (what companies) makes plugins for motion

    thanks in advance for any help

    I’d think whatever preferences you’ve setup will follow the Motion project file. i.e. it will render in FCP according to the project file’s prefs.

    Check out https://www.pluginz.com They have some motion plugins if you search in the advanced search of the site for them.

    Yes, set the anti-aliasing first.

    To open a Motion project in FCP, save the Motion project and then import it into the FCP project as you would a video clip. It will appear in the browser and behave like a clip but wil need to be rendered to play at actual speed.
