Hi everyone, this is Jordy from Yepperdesign and welcome to another exciting tutorial.
First of all I have to say that I'm sorry for my inactivity.
Yepperdesign had some background work, so I wasn't able to make any tutorials.
But I'm making it up to you with this special tutorial.
This tutorial is for all my Macintosh friends.
In other words, the video editing program you see here is called Final Cut Pro.
And it only runs on a Macintosh.
So to all my Premiere Pro friends, I'm sorry, but this ain't for you.
But that doesn't mean you can't watch this tutorial.
Okay, so this here is Final Cut Pro 7 from the Final Cut Studio 3 package.
It's the totally new Final Cut Pro.
Okay, it's just going to be a little tutorial about a new feature which is called Time Remapping.
Well, I hope it's going to be a little tutorial, because else it will be just boring for you to watch it.
But I'm just going to go quickly over it.
This is the little clip I have here.
If I'm going to play it, you see it's the skater I found on Vimeo doing a cool trick.
For those who already experimented with the Time Remapping and Final Cut Pro 6 or older, maybe,
if you right click on a clip and say change speed, you can change the speed.
But hey, what's this?
This is something new.
Yeah, this is the new Time Remapping feature in Final Cut Pro 7.
It's to make a smooth Time Remapping.
After Effects also have this kind of Time Remapping thingy, which is also pretty cool.
And now Final Cut Pro has it.
I don't know if Premiere Pro has it.
Well, I haven't checked it out yet.
This is Final Cut Pro now.
Okay, I'm not going to say anything about this here, because there's another way to do it.
A more professional way, because if I click like this, this is to make a smooth Time Remapping.
I can press a number in here, but a number doesn't say me anything.
So I'm not going to do it right here.
But what just is important is, are these three things here?
Especially the frame blending.
I'm just going to explain it very quickly what frame blending is.
If you have a one second clip with 20 frames, so your clip is 20 frames per second.
So we have 20 frames in one second video.
Okay, that's pretty obvious.
I'm going to make two seconds, so I have a slow motion effect on it.
It will still be 20 frames, because I can't create frames, which doesn't exist.
So it will still be 20 frames.
I just said I can't create frames that doesn't exist.
But Final Cut Pro does, with this thingy called frame blending.
It will create extra frames between two frames, which already exist.
Okay, for those who don't understand what I'm saying, just check the checkbox.
Okay, let's use it.
I'm going to change the % here, let's say to 50%.
It will just double up the time from two seconds to four seconds.
That's pretty obvious.
I'm just going to press cancel now.
I'm going to show you the professional way.
Which is here, I'm going to double click on my clip.
So it will open up, and the viewer is going to open up the motion tab,
where I can change the scale or rotation, stuff like that.
But I'm not going to do that now.
I'm going to change the speed of it, which is all the way down here.
If you don't see it, just click on triangle.
You see two numbers here, 0 and 72.
0 is frame 0 in the beginning of my video, see?
And frame 72 is all the way up here, and this dot on the end of my video.
So my video is going from all the way down to all the way up.
So I'm going to change this dot to 72, this dot to 0.
It will play in reverse.
Okay, I hope you understand that.
Now, this thingy has one settled time.
It's a static time.
I can't change the time, but I do can change the frames.
If you don't understand what I'm saying now, I will just show you.
If I bring this dot down to 36, which is the half of 72,
it will only play the half of the video.
So we're going to lose it here.
I'm going to play it.
And you see, it will go in slow motion,
and it will stop in the middle of my video,
because I'm not playing all my frames, only the half of it.
But we don't want that.
So make sure your lost dot is always ending up here.
Okay, now I'm going somewhere in my time here.
Let's say this spot, I'm going to create a keyframe.
I hope you understand what that is, because that's pretty basic stuff.
I'm going to make another keyframe right here.
And now I'm going to move the keyframes.
See, I can move it vertical and horizontal.
So let's just say, for example, right here somewhere,
and this one, I'm going to bring it down to here.
So what's it going to do?
It's just going to play normally until here,
then it's going to play in reverse back to here,
and here it's going to play back normal to the end of the video.
And for those who don't believe me, I will play it.
But first, I have to render my video,
because I'm playing with HD footage, high-definition footage,
on a pretty old MacBook Pro, not that old,
the one from last year.
It's 2009 for those who are watching this tutorial,
and cool future.
Okay, so let me just play it.
You see, and it's going back.
Okay, it's going to play it a little bit slower now.
It's playing, playing, playing.
So here, to this dot, highest frame,
then it's going back reverse back to this dot here.
Now it's just going to play normally.
Okay.
Now, if you want this to be way faster,
then you just move the dot to here.
Now you will see it will move faster.
I'm going to render it again.
I'm sorry.
Come on.
Okay, now we're going to play it now.
It will see it will go, whoa, that was fast.
Okay, but you saw, this here was more in slow motion at the end.
Okay.
Now, I'm thinking this is not smooth enough,
so you can make it more smoother
by right-clicking one of these dots and say smooth.
You see, now it's going more smoothly.
I'm going to press the other one also, smooth.
And if you click on the blue dots,
you can change the type of smoothness.
Okay.
Here we go.
I don't want to say I want it like that.
I like this.
You can just play with it.
This is something very crazy.
Okay, let me just play it now and you will see
it will follow this path.
Whoa.
And that will be, that's called smoothness.
Okay, so it's not, see now, whoa.
Yeah, this is a little too, let's just say,
yeah, let's just say more like that.
That was a bad example.
Oh, actually it's stupid invention, isn't it?
The high definition.
I need a totally new MacBook Pro now
to run high definition and smoothly.
Okay, I'm going to play it.
Yeah, that's a little better, I think.
So it's going like normal speed.
Here it's going faster, faster, faster.
Oh, it's going back slower as you see
because the frames are not going so fast.
And here you see, I'm going, wait, bang, bang.
You see, here it's going very fast, very fast.
Here we go.
And here we go again up.
Pretty slow, pretty slow, boring, slow.
And here, whoa, we're going fast again.
Okay, I think you do understand that.
Now, some other thing is you saying you wanted to have slower right here.
Your clip will end in the middle and you don't want that.
Right click here.
No, make sure your dot here is on, yep, it's way upside here.
Right click your clip, say, change speed.
Change it to 50%, which will double up here.
I think I know we have a warning.
It will remove all the keyframes, not going to read it now.
All our work is gone.
So we have to start all over again.
But this means we have a longer clip now.
So we have more space here.
Okay, and time.
We have more space and time.
Now if you're saying, oh, actually no, I just want my clip to end right here.
You can make a keyframe here and move it all the way up.
Okay, and the rest will just be one still frame.
It doesn't matter.
Just take your erase tool, cut near and just remove it and you have your video.
Okay, thank you for watching.
I hope you learned something out of this new feature.
Here's one thing to buy, Premiere.
Here's one thing to buy, a Final Cut Pro or Final Cuts to your tree.
This was Jordy from Yepperdesign and check out our website, yepperdesign.com
because there will be more Final Cut Pro tutorials.
Thank you for watching.
