I want to use the Ken Burns effect for video footage, but the starting crop image size of the Ken Burns effect is not the same as the crop image size of the video footage. This caused an abrupt, noticeable change during video. playback
How can I modify the Ken Burns starting crop size to match the existing crop image size of my video footage?
Thank you
Please show the Viewer with the Ken Burns controls active.
For your reference, here's good documentation on using the effect. Pan and zoom clips in Final Cut Pro - Apple Support
I ended up using the crop feature with various crop settings to zoom in and out. I also moved the crop window around to get the Ken Burns pan and zoom effect.
Thanks
Please post screenshots of the Ken Burns on screen controls in the Viewer.
What’s the video frame resolution? What are the project properties?
”the crop image size of the video footage” Does this mean the video’s been cropped before Ken Burns in applied?
Glad you got it working to your satisfaction. You might be interested in watching Mark's blog video showing a simple way to improve upon the Ken Burns effect with Motion. https://www.rippletraining.com/blog/final-cut-pro-x/next-level-ken-burns-effects-in-fcp/
Yes, the video’s been cropped before the Ken Burns effect was added, but I removed the crop settings and re-applied the Ken Burns effect but it didn't help.
Screen shots attached.
Please the screenshot of the Ken Burns controls in the Viewer so we have an idea what the start and end positions are.
