smoother movement with FCP “objects”
i know i could do this in Motion, but i often just want to fly a shrunked piece of video across the screen in FCP with an arcing motion, rather than a straight line. but when i put in a center keyframe, all i get is a linear movement, but now along two lines rather than a nice smooth arc.
i’ve tried using the “ease in/ease out” option by right-clicking on the canvas at the keyframe, but then i get an acceleration change…which i don’t want. i try the “smooth” option for that center keyframe, but it only works on some of the motion tab parameters, like size, but not for “center”.
any quick idears for this simple question?
thanks…
thanks again!

Here you go-

Sadly, you may not find it very easy to adjust.
I never do.

Matte,
Thanks! That was perfect! i knew i had used the bezier controls before, but had forgotten they are accessed under “linear”, and the tutorial was WAY more than i ever knew was possible with those handles. Hopefully others will find this one helpful as well. Thanks again!
thanks again!
