Q: how do I add beauty box to my FCP x?

Please, please please can someone help me?

 

How do I add beauty box to my final cut pro list of video effects?

 

I am so new to this and after 7 hours of trying myself I am resorting to help!

 

Please be very simple and clear in any responses. Thanks so much for any help.

    Did you download this from Digital Anarchy? What version of FCP are you using? What did you download?

     

    You download a disk image .dmg. Double click it mounts the image, and open the installer. Double click the installer to run it and enter your system password. Launch FCP, and it should appears in the effects browser.

    my question on FCP.png

    Dear Tom

     

    Thanks for the quick reply. I have added BB to my effects menu ( see file) but I cannot for the life of me get it moved up to the effect menu higher up on the screen. I am following a video tutorial and need to do exactly what is on the video . It is this stage of moving the BB so it is part of the effects menu which has got me!

    YYou don't put the effect in the inspector. You drag the effect onto a clip in the timeline. The effect then appears in the clip inspector.

    Hi Tom

     

    Thank you so much. I am so sorry for what may have seemed such a basic question - but it truly took me hours without progress.
