A concept that I learned in Lesson 12 was how to create a freeze frame. One way to modify the speed of a clip is to stop the motion of the whole clip. This is a good shot to use when your ending a scene or if you need to fix a clip that is to short and you need to extend it to fit a certain amount of time. The freeze frame can be created in the timeline which makes it an even easier task. After adjusting the clip, you go to the modify menu and click make freeze frame to create the freeze frame. You can than overwrite it in the viewer so that it ends up back on the sequence.
A concept I learned in lesson 13 was how to apply animating filters. If you want to change a filter parameter over time, you can animate that parameter by adding keyframes. When using animated filters you can help support a visual style that you are trying to create, and it can also help to correct a shot that needs to be fixed. A simple way of using this is through the effects menu, choosing video filters and image control. This allows you to make such animated filter changes as color correction.
A concept I learned in Lesson 14 was how to export a quicktime file using conversion. Exporting a Final Cut Project using conversion can be very handy. Sometimes the file that you need to export may be to large to jus export normally. When using the quicktime conversion you can choose the format you want exported as the first step. Than you can through the movie settings tab, fix the current settings for video, sound, and internet streaming. Than you can move on to the compression settings and the export size settings. Quicktime conversion can be a very important tool to know when using Final Cut Pro
