Cropping - smooth path

Hi everybody!

Could you help me with the following issue?
I'm making keyframes in cropping and it seems a little harshly while I playback it.. I want to make it smoother.. but there is no bezier tool (like in transforming) to make so... It's very easy to do in Premier, but I can't find how to figure it out in FCPX
help me please

Hi 2to2
Welcome to the forums.
Not exactly understanding your question.
Have you tried the Ken Burns effect? This may or may not be the effect you want.
For more complicated key framing.

From Apple on applying smoothing to keyframes see this…https://support.apple.com/kb/PH12609?locale=en_US&viewlocale=en_US

Smooth position keyframes
You can modify the shape of a clip’s path in the Viewer by setting individual keyframes to be smooth. This adds a set of Bezier handles that allow you to create intricate, complex shapes and enables more control over the way your clips move. You can also remove the curves and the handles used to create them by setting a keyframe to be linear.

In the Viewer, select a clip that has keyframes applied.

To learn how to add keyframes to a clip, see “Animate built-in effect,” above.

Click the Transform button to display the position keyframes.

Control-click any individual keyframe, and choose an option from the shortcut menu:

To convert the keyframe to a smooth keyframe: Choose Smooth.

Bezier handles appear, and you can drag those handles to control the curved shape of the path.

To convert the keyframe to a corner point: Choose Linear.

Bezier handles are removed from the keyframe, and the keyframe becomes a corner point.


Hope this helps, Greg
