so to be honest with you guys
I hate doing this, I hate installing presets
K'aiza K'aiza everyone welcome back to yet
another video. On this channel we want to
give you some tips and some hacks on how
to make your video look
good, look better! So you guys clicked on
this video because you want to know how
to install your presets for final cut
pro
faster, easier, [muted]
Sorry about that guys, He was never gonna
stop. I had to mute him. I'm sorry guys!
that...
Believe me he was never gonna stop and
you guys are here for the tutorial not
for the intro so let's get it.
So for this method first you need to set
up the "Favorites" sidebar
on your finder window. This will help you
to easily access these folders when you
need them.
To do that click on -Finder- on the top
left of your screen click on
-Preferences- and then -Sidebar- When you
get here just check the box for -Movies-
or -Home-
and you should be set and now if you
look under -Favorites- on the sidebar
finder window you will see -Home- and
-Movies-
Where we really want to go is actually
movies and then find -motion templates-
because the folders are right there
the effects, the generators, titles,
transitions,
all are in there. The path for this
method is home/
movies/ motion templates. Just three steps!
You can even make it in two steps if you
click on -movies- on the sidebar.
easy!!!
This method right here makes me wonder,
like why would they make this
so complicated??? But we're going to try to
make this simple
and quick in a little bit. So you go to
applications,
right click on final cut pro, show
package contents,
then contents, then plugins,
and then media provider, motion effect,
content resources,
then you go to templates, and then
finally you get to the folder
transitions/ titles/ generators/ effects
that's how long it is.
So you guys see, like i said earlier it
doesn't make sense that they make it
that hard
just to get to that location to install
the presets. But I'm going to show you
guys a faster way to do it and
you can choose later which one of these
method you want to use. Uh the most
important thing is that when you buy
your presets or when you
create your own preset that you know
where to put it and just pick the method
that you like the most
or the easiest method.
Now here's a faster way to do that same
long method. With your finder window
active
go to go (chuckles) I mean click on -go-,
then click on -go to folder- and then you
can type the path
to where those folders are located or
just copy and paste the path in the
description
and there you go. You can actually also
just use the shortcut.
It will be faster! -shift + command + g- which
is the same thing as -go to folder-
and then copy and paste -command + c-
-command + v-
All right, okay quick question let me
know in the comment section guys which
one of these methods you prefer?
so -shift + command + g- that's -go to the
folder- and then copy and paste the path
that i put in the description
and you will get to the same location
that we we need
to get to to install this preset.
Now if you followed one of these methods
and still couldn't find these folders,
don't worry guys it just means that you
have to create them first.
Now let's -right click- on one of them -get
info-
and as you can see these folders has a
.localized extension.
So if I was to create these folders, I
will have to add
-dot localized- when i name them. So let's
create a new folder -right click-
-new folder- but remember you only need to
do this if you don't have the folders
effects,
titles, generators, all that inside the
motion folder.
So right now i'm gonna take -effect- as an
example
then i add -dot localized- that will tell
the computer that you are trying to
put that folder there for final cut pro
and that's it. Alright guys that's all i
