Shane I think this has been your best post in a while. Not only was it informitive but also entertaining to read.
Thanks!

Turn your speed of the emitter down to zero so the particles do not go anywhere then add in the gravity behavior. The particles will be pulled down by gravity just like rain in real life. Now that you have the look you want you can play with the speed and other settings to add some varience to your rain (if you want).
Hope that helps.

Is the video you are trying to pin to the camera a 3D object? It sounds like you are using motions camera to have the TV screen leave the frame. If the video is just 2D it will not be effected by Motion’s Camera movements leaving your video where it was.

Can you give me a bit more detail on what you are trying to do? Do you want your text to flash/flicker on right to left or to glow then go back to normal right to left.
Alot of times the presets are great starting points but you will need to adjust them to make them do exactly what you want.

FCP/Motion offer 3 types of slow motion/retiming. Optical flow is great but it is not perfect. If your clip has lots of background detail, or lots of little detail. Optical flow just won’t work it always looks like garbage. (Example: a river, or a shot of a moving object with a background full if people.) you can always do a speed change in fcp and try turning off blened frames. I think this looks best for small speed changes. Or maybe it’s a fast paced clip. Then frame blending may be your best choice.
The truth is trying to fix everything in post isn’t always (and when I say isn’t always I really mean it never is) your best solution. For the best slowmotion over crank the camera and shoot at a higher FPS.
Hopefully that helps.

Render out your sequence, choose import to project. Turn off every layer, camera and light. Then retime the rendered (baked) video.

Do you have an AJA card installed if so. I ran into this same problem with after effects and motion producing a color shift. If you uninstall the AJA uncompressed component (you just drag it out of the QT folder) and just use the one that comes with FCS you wont get that color shift.

Hey Jeff, Mark Spencer, has a tutorial on this on his website (applemotion.net) you may have to dig around but it on there. The trick to making them look good is to use a program like Photoshop to seperate your layers and to clone/fill in your seperated object area so if you scale/move your front object you don’t see a hole.
Hopefully that helps.
