Wow of all the videos I have seen to me this is the best one so far. I think the clarity of the shots are really nice to see along with the various camera angles and even the zooms were awesome. So many times we see video from so far away that it looses the magic and this type of video brings it in right to your face. which is so nice to see. Can you explain a bit about how you got the zooms to work so well in the cuts. Just fantastic for those of us learning how to create some magic video like this. Thank you for sharing. Phantomrain.org
Thanks. Glad you liked it! I love to fly close to the ground, water, snow and in tight spots. Most of the time I fly in ATTI mode (no GPS) and with VPS/OA turned off. Regarding with zooms, they are transition effects. They don't work so well in every shots but If you use them appropriately in selected shots they really work well. I use several 3rd party transition effects/plugins with my FCPX. They allow me to do things with my editing software that I just can’t do otherwise. They work best when used in one continous shot. Just keep the beginning and end of the clip and cut what's in beetween. Then connect those two clips with transition efect.
IMO, 3 best sites for FCPX effects/plugins are as follows:
1) Pixel Fim Studios: https://store.pixelfilmstudios.com/
2) FXFactory: https://fxfactory.com/
3) MotionVFX: https://www.motionvfx.com/
And here are the 3 transition packs that I use most frequently:
1) Cineflare smooth: https://fxfactory.com/info/smooth/
2) Flowpop: https://fxfactory.com/info/flowpop/
3) Trans Zoom: https://store.pixelfilmstudios.com/product/transzoom-2/
