using letterbox effect on a cropped clip HELP! was created by Urilivni
hi,
im editing a short movie in which i played a lot with the Transform tool. now that im done adjusting all the clips, i want to add Letterbox to all of them in a homogeneous way, but when i used the built in Letterbox on FCP it applies it in a way only suitable for the original size, without the transformation...
how can i resolve this?
thanks a lot!

Not sure what problem you're facing as I've never used the FCP letterbox effect but this may be helpful to others even if it's worthless for your situation.
Solution 1 - For a similar effect I'll create an Adjustment Layer, place on top, crop to taste, then extend duration to cover the timeline. Easily disabled.
Solution 2 - Create a PNG image mask file, place over clips, adjust duration.
An example of PNGs I created for oft used situations.
