How to apply Time Remap to multiple clips simultaneously

Quite often after trimming many different clips for a wedding video I will then want the majority of them slowed down to a 50% speed. I know how to apply the Time Remap Speed % change in the Motion Tab, but have yet to figure out how to make the change to multiple clips simultaneously.

Thanks for your help!

Select a clip in the timeline with the speed you want to copy - copy it, usin Command-C. Then select all the other clips you wish to apply the speed change to, right-mouse click, and Paste Attributes. Select Speed in the poop-up menu. Be aware that all your clips will stretch by the expected amount, lengthening your timeline.

You can apply a speed change from one clip to multiple clips by copying the first one, then pasting attributes (option + V, then select speed from the list) onto as many clips as you have selected.

Just be aware that this will ripple your timeline by extending all of your clips. FCP keeps the original out point of the source clip, not the out point of each cut on the T/L.
