You can resize, move, and rotate an image using the Transform built-in effect. This effect is commonly used on a clip placed over a primary storyline clip, which becomes the background of the resized clip. It’s also often used to zoom in on a clip, allowing you to reframe a shot if needed.
You can adjust the Transform effect using controls in the viewer and Video inspector.
However, some controls are found only in one or the other.
1. Select a clip in the Final Cut Pro timeline.
2. Position the playhead over the clip in the timeline so that the clip’s video is displayed in the viewer.
Adjust the Transform effect using the onscreen controls:
• Overscan button in the upper-right corner of the viewer: Click to reveal the overscan areas (areas of a clip that extend beyond the edges of the viewer).
• Blue handles at each corner: Drag these to adjust the image’s size while maintaining its current aspect ratio.
• Blue handles in the middle of each side: Drag these to independently adjust the vertical and horizontal image size, changing the aspect ratio of the image.
Note: These controls aren’t available in the Video inspector.
• White circle in the center: Shows the rotation anchor point. Drag anywhere inside the image to adjust the image’s position.
• Blue handle extending from the center circle: Drag this to rotate the image.
