5 Practical Ways to Use FCP’s Built in Object Tracker

[@Brad_West]

What are you going to use the object tracker for? Let me know! 😊👇🏼

[@duncanwilliams3825]

Probably for titles..thank you for all ur videos

[@Brad_West]

My pleasure Duncan! Appreciate you watching 😊🙏🏼

[@Al-ImprovEd2022]

I have to make a video about basketball and would love to do something slick with the object tracker so I'm looking for creative ideas ... Thanks for this video. Helpful.

[@Brad_West]

Glad it was helpful to you! You could track the players and add names/positions or anything like that 😄

[@Al-ImprovEd2022]

@@Brad_West thanks. That’s an idea. I’m trying to do something like U2’s Window in the Sky version that starts with soccer ball, birds, etc.., since the video is about the players b ball career and chronological. Going to be challenging.

[@IgorTFerreira]

I'm editing simple videos for more than 15 years, first on windows (most of them using a software called powerdirector), than moved to lumafusion for IPAD for 2 or 3 years and in the last months i was trying to use Davini Resolve (but it's a pain to learn, it's VERY difficult in my opinion), 3 days ago i got a macbook air m1, i'm really impressed how easy and complete final cut looks! i will end buying it... Your channel rocks! thanks for the videos! :)

[@Brad_West]

I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how user friendly FCP is and how quickly you will be able to edit. There are a bunch of tutorials that are bound to helpful you as you start out with FCP. Feel free to ask any questions you might have 😄👍🏼

[@ProdigyBowlersTour]

How is it possible that this channel only has 17.5K subs? These are some of the best FCP tutorials I've seen on KZbin. Nice work, Brad. :-)

[@BeauTylerMakesMusic]

Came here for the tricks and I’m very thankful for your expertise. However, I gained even more just from watching your tutorial/production style. So quick and to the point without skipping important small steps. It’s not like you reinvented the wheel… you just did EVERYTHING a little better than other content creators of all niches that I’ve seen. Super clear and concise. You’re never overly extemporaneous (that’s a huge issue of mine). You also aren’t secretly gatekeeping from new users by intentionally using complex jargon while failing to explain it. A LOT of editors do that and I appreciated that you’re clearly confident enough in your skills that you’re not afraid to share the entirety while seeming encouraging. For all I know you eat babies every Saturday, but you come across as warm, welcoming, and proud to help. I at least feel like it says a lot about you. Absolute expert all around. Commented (obviously), subbed, liked, and all notifications turned on. In summation, you’re my new guru whether you like it or not. Lol WOW. I just realized the novel I just wrote lol. I have NEVER commented such a level of praise or written anywhere near as much on a KZbin comment in my life. I just feel you absolutely deserve to hear that you are incredible at what you’re doing all the way from the craft you’re teaching to the craft of demonstrating it. When someone is really good at this sort of thing they can almost make you forget they’re actually experts in multiple crafts. Huge props! Okay. Rant over. I don’t like being this nice. Gonna go yell at a random dog so I can return balance to the universe. 😂 🫡 ✌️ ❤️

[@Brad_West]

Haha! 😂 That was a real joy to read! I appreciate the support and for you taking the time to leave a comment like this. This is easily one of my favorite comments I've ever received 🤣 Thanks for the laugh, and don't be too mean to that random dog! 👊🏼

[@scottmccauley5945]

Great video! One question. How can you track something that starts off screen?

[@Brad_West]

That is a tough one. I would start in the middle of the shot, track backwards and forwards. As the object moves out of the frame, stop the track and adjust in manually frame by frame. That is pretty much the only way to do it 👍🏼

@Brad_West. Love your video on FCPx tracker but can it be used to track a video clip in a video ,similar to how you added and tracked text and if so how? Thank you

[@Brad_West]

Yes, you certainly can. So first you track the object in your first clip, using the add track option in the inspector window. Then you drop the second clip on top of the first clip. Click on the transfrom icon at the bottom of the viewer window, or right-click on the viewer window and select "Transform". Then you should see a drop-down box at the top of the viewer window next to "tracker". From there you can select the track and the resize and position your clip accordingly. Hope that helps 😄👍🏼

[@Soul_Visuals_Photography]

great video. is there a way to do tracking callouts? or do I need to use a plug in?

[@Brad_West]

You can most certainly track callouts with FCP’s built in tracking feature. The entire title/template will track with whatever object you track. If you want the point on the callout to track independently of the text, you might need to use a plugin. I use mCallouts to do that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnrPlKKHa7WJntU Hope that helps 😊🤞🏼

Let FCP do the track until it goes out of frame and then go frame by frame to manually adjust the tracking point off-screen where you think the object would be.

Great Video! 🔥🔥🔥 Special question: I‘m going to track an object (video) from a B-Roll video that should correspond to an object (video) within the A-Roll. Both objects are moving (little zoom and rotation) in different ways by default. Is this possible by using the tracker feature? Multible instances?

[@Brad_West]

Thanks so much! I'm not 100% sure I understand what you mean. You want to track the movement of the broll and apply that movement to an object in the A roll? You would likely need to isolate the object in the A roll first.

[@electrosquash6706]

@ Here an example; An iPad is moving a bit (A-Roll), Now I‘m going to show a video (B-Roll) on the screen of the iPad. My issue is that both clips are in motion and I want to bring them together in an appropriate way. So I thought about auto-tracking each to a specific „center-point“. I tried it with keyfranes but the result is not good enough….

I think Pixel Film Studios has a surface tracker plugin that might do the job, although I haven’t tried it out. It’s not the easiest effect to pull off. There are probably ways to do it in after effects as well if you have it. If you get it right feel free to share a link so I can see it 😄👍🏼

I have been using Filmora for a couple of years and just started on FCP. I find FCP confusing and overly heavy to use. I am still learning maybe I will end up using FCP full time but I doubt it

Once you get the hang on if, it's honestly the fastest and most user friendly editing app IMO. Good luck 😄👊🏼

Brad, really a very good tutorial, thanks!! A question, Do you know is possible to add tracking into a 360º Stereo Video?

Thank you! 🙏🏼 I’ve never actually tried but now I’m curious. I’ll look into it.
