    Hey everyone,

    I am doing a little project where I would really love to have a progress bar showing how much is it till the end of the video. The project consists of 65 really short videos and I would like to add such progress bar on the botton of each.

    Of course I know it can be done in Motion or AE, but the point is not to do it there since the videos have variable length :-/ I thought someone must have thought about this before me, so there might be some plugin for FCP.

    Hope I am not asking some stupid question :-/

    Cheers,

    Filip

    You could just create an animation (basically a line with a wipe or animated crop) that you put on the top layer, and use fit to fill to make it the length of the video.

    Create a graphic, crop it and keyframe the crop.
