Motion Blur on Transforms

I'm working on a project where I'm doing some pretty aggressive scaling and re-positioning over 10 or less frames, and I notice that FCPX is not adding motion blur to these transforms.

Whats the best way to get FCPX to incorporate motion blur on moving and scaling clips?

I create an adjustment layer just above the transition, then I apply a motion blur effect (in my case RSMB) on that adjustment layer. It works extremely well.

Otherwise, you have to do it through Motion.

There might be other ways I'm not aware of.

Went ahead and bought RSMB. Works well. Used it to enhance some speed ramps I'd done too. Not as clean as 'real' motion blur generated natively by the fcpx engine would be - but good enough.

Thanks much!

Great that it worked out! Actually I think it can be even cleaner than what the motion engine would do, but as you've seen it's a complex plugin. I think if you master it, you can do amazing things. Personally I don't master it at all :)

Good luck with your project!
