refection on the floor effect
hello
I am new in this stuff and I saw everywhere in Apple’s tutorials and movies about FCP this effect when the text or the image is reflected in a virtual floor. Is this duplicate-reflect-maskwithgradient thing or there is some effect, setting or something because I see a lot of this effect arround.
Thank you very much -

Just about everyone does this differently. After duplicating the clip go into the motion tab and play with the distort to give it the right shape, or you use a move 3d filter to get the perspective…then depending on how much Fall off you are looking for you make a gradiant, then create a mask for it…and there you have it. Matching the color tends be the difficult part of this. If you are not too worried about having a perfect fall off you could always just drop the opacity and skip the gradiant mask…but i dont suggest it.
This is pretty much the same method as creating shadows too…only then you desaturate your text and give it a higher contrast first.
