[@postandfly]

15 years using Final Cut and thanks to your channel i am learning really important new things. Thanks!!!!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Hell ya dude! That makes me beyond happy to hear 🙌🏼 thank YOU for letting me know that!

[@chaplinesque111]

Same here!!

[@pappu4539]

Are you a video editor? How did you use FCP for 15 years? What you did?

[@postandfly]

@@pappu4539 I start in the Univertsity, then i work as freelance, then i work in a TV channel and some productions companies, and 9 years ago i start my own drone buissiness in many cases i edit the video for the client, also i do a lot of content in KZbin. :)

[@marshallhajek]

Ahh the “~” is a lifesaver when dealing with the magnetic timeline! Figured there had to be a better way. Thanks man!

[@HabanosChris]

Yes !

[@dylanjohndickerson]

That it is Marshall! It helps out a whole bunch. Thanks for watching brotha 🤙🏼

[@PrimalVideo]

Awesome Tips Dylan - sharing this out on our community tab. Well done

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Holy smokes 😄 I appreciate it more than you know, Justin 🙏🏼 thank you so much!

[@marsgizmo]

great tips! 👏😎

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Thank you!

[@PhaseRunner]

Yep, I was doing it wrong. Snapshot tip is a game changer. Thanks Dylan👏

[@dylanjohndickerson]

That it is my friend! Thanks for watching 👊

[@JeffSu]

Love how you put your own spin on the mKBHD pack Dylan! Definitely gave me some inspiration for my next video!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

I freaking love that pack brotha. It’s fresh and modern and there’s so much good stuff in it. Glad I could offer some inspiration 🤙🏼

[@SmartMoneywithKai]

@@dylanjohndickerson Hi Dylan, I can only echo Jeff's words (who by the way is another huge source of inspiration for me) These were some amazing hecks and definitly shaves off quite some time from my next edit. Loved the Shift+? tip. Awesome work, thanks a lot🙏

[@dylanjohndickerson]

@@SmartMoneywithKai That makes me stoked to hear, Kai 🤙🏼 Glad I could pass on some useful info. Shift and Question mark is really clutch and when customizing it to just the question mark key, it makes for some quick and easy playback. Thanks for letting me know you liked the video!

[@HananyaNaftali]

I edit all of my videos on Final Cut Pro, and this video was very helpful! Thank you

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Awesome! Thanks so much for watching, Hananya 😊

[@raulgolfs]

BRUHHHHH!! That first one.. 🙌 Jesus man! You've just ANSWERED a ton of questions Ive been having when I edit! AMAZING VID man. THANK YOU!!!

Well hell yaaaaa Raul 🤘 I'm stoked to hear that brotha! Thanks for watching and taking the time to let me know you enjoyed it 👊

[@JohnKuehne_SF]

Thanks!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Holy smokes, John! I know we share the same name, but wow 🤩 Thank you so so much, my friend!

[@manmadewilderness]

Good to know about snapshots, Dylan. I never thought about dupes of compound clips and multicam clips inheriting the parent properties. I’ve always used duplicate project for versioning.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

My pleasure, Kent. Ya definitely go with snapshots. I've definitely made the error of using duplicate projects and after a lot of editing in multicam clips, I sadly went back to some old versions to find that they had been changed as well.

[@patrickvogel]

Love your energy Dylan! Thank you for the useful tips and providing use with so much value :) I'm definitely focus on some of these for my next youtube video. Keep the good work up! Subscribed.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Thanks Patrick! 🙏 I appreciate the kind words and the sub!

[@ThinkAboutItNow]

Really Great tips Dylan. Thanks!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

You're welcome! 🤙🏼

[@birdspiders]

I literally started laughing out loud because crying was not an option :D Especially the one with the Tilde key is a life changer, I can't count how often I messed up my timeline. Thank you so much for all these pro tipps, way better than all the other vids I've seen on this topic!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Haha I got you, my friend! I'm stoked to hear that I was able to pass along some useful tips to help you flourish as an editor 💪🏼 Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

[@JohnKuehne_SF]

Friggin' awesome! Thanks for some new tricks and gently reminding us how great this software actually is.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Thank YOU John. I make these for the satisfaction of helping people out, completing projects, and my love for editing. I don't make much money off of them. You giving that Super Thanks gives me that extra push to keep continuing down the path I'm on. Thank you once again for your generosity 🙏

[@courtcousinsnba]

This is great! Thanks for these helpful tips - definitely going to be using a few of these and checking out your other resources!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Awesome! Thanks for 🙏watching

[@bittdivers]

Awesome tips, Dylan. Big thanks for spending some of your time sharing that! It is really time saving and better editing for me.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

It's my pleasure, Rafic! Thank you for watching and commenting 🙏 Have you seen part 2 by the way? If not, here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6quga18eZirfJI

[@Techninjaspeaks]

What a killer video. The first one alone was enough for me to sub. Thanks!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Well hell ya! Thanks a ton my dude 🤙🏼

[@vicassovisuals461]

Top tier tips! I've been using FCPX for many years but love how the learning never stops. The "~'" is a real game changer.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

I totally agree! The magnetic timeline is of course the default in FCP and one reason why it's so fast, but obviously there are times when you'd like to disengage it. The "~'" key is the savior in that instance. Thanks for watching, my friend!

[@1998parthjain]

What an absolute banger. Such good points! Thank you !

[@dylanjohndickerson]

You're welcome Parth! I'm coming out with a part 2 next week, by the way. Hit that notification bell to get notified about its release if you haven't already! 🤘

[@vitorzardi]

You absolute crushed it! Thank you so much! Already subscribed and watching, liking and sharing all of your videos...just because you deserve it!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Thanks a ton, Vitor 👍🏼 I really appreciate the support! Let me know if there's a specific video you'd like to see made.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Killer tips Dylan, thank you! Saving presets, getting all that sound in the library, background render off, shift ?, and those killer organization tips are game changers for me 👊

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Dope Jason! I'm glad that I was able to teach you a thing or two brotha 🤘

[@saintchris5887]

This may be best FCPX tips video ever. Well done.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Well that’s some damn amazing feedback to hear 🙌🏼 Thanks so much Chris!

[@adriangangur6627]

I feel I always get tremendous benefit from time spent watching your videos. Thanks for the hard work you do!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

That gives me incredible push to continue making them 😊 Thanks so much for your support Adrian!

[@Bryan_Stock]

Definitely using a few of these tips thanks for the video🙌

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Nice nice! Thanks for watching! 🙏

[@michaelchapman7627]

Most useful FCPX video I have seen in a long time. Great job, my compliments. Subscribing now ;-) and if there’s a link to buy you a coffee I’m more than happy to do so. All the best from the Netherlands.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Oh wow! Such awesome feedback to hear, Michael! Thank you so much! 😃 There's something on youtube called 'Super Thanks'. It's right below the video and allows you to make a donation of any amount to support the creator. I greatly appreciate you offering that 🙏 please don't feel obliged to. Cheers from Indonesia, my friend!

[@EpicTubeHD]

Holy Crap! I've watched countless tutorials over the years on fcpx, and this is by far the best one impho. Every single aspect I have had while editing was addressed in this one video. The attention to detail and explanation of everything was very well done too. 21.8k Subs right now, I bet you'll have 100k by the end of 2022. Great job on this and thank you....

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Wowwzaaa 😍 Thank you so much! I can only hope. I don't foresee that happening, but I gotta keep up the grind and hope that it does. My goal for this year was 30k. Thanks for the kind words my friend 🙏

[@richardllewellynme]

Genuinely useful tips. So often these are just re-hashed but this one is a winner. Thanks - great video production too.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Such awesome feedback to get, Richard! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment 🙏

[@DisRizTVMedia]

DopeNess!!! Another Banga Dylan!!! Thanks 🙏🏽 for the quick tips!!!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Yo yo! Thanks brothaaaa! 👊

[@dudewecanfixitshorts]

I don’t leave comments super often but this has made editing so much more enjoyable. Is still my blade to b. Delete is space. And play from head is N. I’ve been editing for 3 years and never knew this lmao Thank you so much for the amazing video. Liked. Subbed.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

You should start leaving comments more often! 😊 I enjoy hearing what people have to say. That makes me very happy to hear that I was able to shed some light on a few things. Have you seen part 2 of this video by chance? You may like that as well 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6quga18eZirfJI

[@davidrfrench]

Worth mentioning that once you have a keyword collection, you can add clips to it by dragging and dropping. You can also add just ranges of a clip, so for example if you’re clipping up an interview you can select a range and drag it to a keyword collection called “clips” and you have a simple easy list of all your clips. I’ve been editing in Premiere all day and the media management is awful compared to FCP.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Great points, David! I just did a quick dive into some features, but you're right, there are so many more ways to organize your footage in FCP 🙌 Without a doubt better than Premiere.

[@STRAIGHTP]

A few of these were new to me and very efficient and valuable. Subscribed. Great vid

[@dylanjohndickerson]

So awesome to hear! Welcome to the community 😊

[@kevinhoctor62]

Excellent tips list! I thought this was going to be a refresher video for me, but you showed off several new tips - or variations on tips I knew. Cheers!

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Thanks so much Kevin! Glad I was able to surprise you with some new tips 😊 thank you for watching!

[@JoseGarcia-ih7qj]

Wow … I never comment but wow awesome video, I actually learned a lot ! Thank you, you’re awesome

[@dylanjohndickerson]

You should comment more, brotha! I'm always down to chat in the comments. That makes me stoked to hear you enjoyed it 🤘 Any particular video topic you'd like to see next?

Damn! First tutorial I've watched the last ~3 years where I literally found EVERYTHING super useful. Thanks a bunch! #NewFCPUser

😍 That's incredible to hear. Thank you for letting me know that! And thanks for watching Lukas 🙏

Can’t believe it’s taken me so long to find you! Best, clearest explanations Ive found and I have seen dozens if not hundreds of videos. Keep these coming! And thank you for the cheat sheet.

Oooo hot damn 😍 thanks for that compliment! That makes me very happy to hear my friend. I’ll keep ‘em coming and thanks so much for the support!

[@jefflanghornephoto]

Absolute gold!! great info. Thank you.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Thanks Jeff! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@martingoldmann]

For all viewers from Germany: Use the ^ instead of the ~ for that Magnetic Timeline Magic ;-) (I'm still a rendering guy. Dunno why. It is the way I do it for 11 years. Maybe a Mandalorian thing: "Rendering your timeline. This is the way.")

[@dylanjohndickerson]

This is the way 😂 I have to say it with you. Very true! You can put this key on whatever key you'd like. Only US keyboards have the tilde/grave key I believe.

[@EKowvisuals]

Lift from story line😎

[@playjohskill]

My fav youtuber

[@dylanjohndickerson]

😍 I gotta say, that's a first...and it made my day. Thank you, Johan 🙏 Any video topic you'd like to see in the future mate?

[@playjohskill]

​@@dylanjohndickerson Hi dylan, I like all the topics you develop on this channel. I'm working as a filmmaker for 1 year and half and I've learnt so much thanks to your videos. Thanks you so much for that. Keep it that way, maybe a video about color grading mistakes and how to avoid them ( with color finale 😍) or how to color grade a wedding or stuff like that .I wish you the best. Have a great day mate.😁

[@dylanjohndickerson]

@@playjohskill You know what's funny, is I'm actually writing a script for a video called '5 Reasons Why Your Color Grades Suck' haha. You know what I have planned! haha. A color grading tutorial for wedding videos would be a solid idea as well. I'll keep the color grading tutorials coming :) I'm also creating a color grading course for Final Cut Pro and Color Finale users right now. I'm hoping to have it done by the end of the year, so I'll keep you updated! I wish you the best as well brotha 👊 Thanks so much for the support and enjoy your day!

[@AndrewMasters]

Damn son! This video is fantastic. I've been editing all my videos in fcpx for a year and a half. Made it to step 5 before seeing something I already knew.

[@dylanjohndickerson]

Thanks so much Andrew! Glad to hear I was able to teach you some new tricks 😊

[@MarkHoudePhotography]

Once again, many of these tips will drastically improve my workflow Dylan. I already use a few of these shortcuts, and have learned a few more! I love your idea of omitting the modifier key. Time for more customization!

Glad you enjoyed it Issam!

[@allmagall]

Thanks for the free guide. I wrote a bunch of notes but I have as much trouble reading them as anyone else would. Your guide has a very clear definition for all of the functions and their keystrokes. Just taking ten minutes to look it over before starting a project really refreshes the old memory. Your comment on the grave/tilde key helped explain why some of my clips were put out of synch

[@billfried626]
