Something else I love about FCP X, is the ability to publish a custom title, transition, generator or effect out of Motion. You can also make an adjustment layer in Motion as well. Takes less than 30 seconds to do. A big time saver. I love X, it is just too fun to use. 🙂

I wonder if the Radeon 5770 card is not the best option and whether to go with a GTX 780 instead.
When life gives me lemons, there are two ways I look at it: As lemonade or a gas guzzling clunker that could fall apart on me at any moment. I prefer lemonade.

I wish X would work with the files in their native format. Rendering is a pain in the caboose.

Doubt this would ever happen but expressions in Motion would be nice. I remember in AE you could save an expression into a program like Text Edit and anytime you needed it just simply a matter of pasting it back over. Really useful for those long expressions.

Just attempted to bring in BMCC raw footage with the result of it being brought in as an image sequence, playback was a bit choppy. Frames were skipped, don’t think they were dropped. So it looks like transcoding is necessary.

I honestly don’t know, hoping someone else has the answer. Resolve is used to render individual clips in ProRes codec along with XML for use in X. Typically use a Rec709 LUT in the workflow. Then back to Resolve for color grading, then back to X for finishing. Now that Red Giant Universe is supported in Resolve, it will be used for finishing. I realize that answer is a bit off track and as far as I know Motion does not handle raw files in their native format. Could be wrong.
As far as the workflow described above, Denver Riddle has a video tutorial on Color Grading Central, a very easy task. Hope this answer is useful. Plan to get some test footage with a Rokinin lens that was recently purchased.

The lack of Send To Motion is a major bummer, dude. I prefer expressions over behaviors, though. The only thing that keeps me from using After Effects is that darn rental only model. Keeping an eye on Fusion, no pun intended.

That is true and why I prefer to go the developer website.

I could see the possibility of Red Giant Universe making its way to the App Store but then again not sure what this would mean for their other product offerings.
I doubt Boris would migrate over, based on product, you get can choose which category you want (such as transitions) or go for the entire package. Then there is the overall product offering. For those reasons I don’t see them migrating over to the App Store anytime soon.
Glad to see some smaller companies making their products available in the App Store and agree there will be benefits. In fact, going to look to see what they have and make a purchase in the next few days. Wondering if the updcate cycle will be free or for a small price. Either way, this will be be a huge benefit.
