Izzy Video tutorials make it easy to learn video.

I saw this last night and couldn’t stop laughing. If you edit on Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Express, take a moment to watch this “tutorial” where the host does EVERYTHING wrong (intentionally). Make sure you watch it all the way to the end.

Several people have asked me how to create a high quality DVD from a sequence created in Final Cut Pro. This episode will show you a couple different high quality workflows. If you’re a Final Cut Pro user, you should find this helpful.

Sometimes when you try to add a transition in Final Cut Express, it doesn’t work. You might see an error. Or you might not show you an error, but it still doesn’t work. Or you might be able to add a transition, but you can’t increase the duration of it.

Final Cut Express can be tricky with transitions sometimes. If you’re having trouble adding transitions to your sequence in Final Cut Express or Final Cut Pro, this video should help.

I have received this same question from many different viewers, and rather than answer them all individually, I thought it would make sense to make a video that shows you:

• Why does a transition problem happen in Final Cut Express?
• How do you fix the problem?
• How to work around it if it’s not something you CAN fix

This video applies to both Final Cut Express and Final Cut Pro.

I hope you find it helpful.

If you’re shooting video of a live event, it’s best to have several cameras capturing at the same time. Generally, the more angles you have on the action, the better.

This installment of Izzy Video is how to edit the footage from all of those cameras. The application I use in the tutorial is Final Cut Pro, but you can likely do similar things in other editing applications.

If you want to know how to switch between different camera angles inside Final Cut Pro, you’ll love this video.

Please note: The project files will only work in Final Cut Pro 7.

This one is for members only, but you can watch the Quicktime trailer here.

Sometimes you can get beautiful effects with simple techniques. This installment of Izzy Video shows you how to make a video clip freeze and then flash into a photo, using the Ken Burns effect. It’s a common effect you see in video, and you’ll see it’s quite simple to create.

This is a tutorial for the members, but you can watch the Quicktime version of the trailer here.

By the way, although I use Final Cut Pro in this video, you could likely create the same effect in nearly any editing software that allows you to do keyframing. Enjoy!
