    I am very new to FCPX and was wondering if someone could help me on two things?

    One being the text animation….is it possible to get the text to seem like it is tracking a moving object on screen and if so how do i go about this??

    Also if i was to stick a logo onto an image and wanted the logo to blur and shake then return back to focus and still how do i do this??

    any help would be muchly appreciated.

    Motion is the $50 companion tool for motion graphics, where the transitions, text and other effects (not audio) come from; if you own Motion, it makes it possible to build your own text effects, templates, etc. Check it out – it’s on the App store.

    Best,
