Final Cut Pro - Module III

Introduction: Let's Hear It

In previous modules, users learned how to bring video clips into Final Cut Pro using a digital video camera, how to load digitized files, how to order and cut them in the Timeline area of Final Cut, and how to add basic visual transition effects. Up until this point, the discussions have focused on video only. However, video is only part of the final project.

Sound can enhance or detract from a good quality video. For professional projects with a reasonably good budget, the services of an audio studio are usually used in post-production. However, Final Cut Pro does have basic tools producers can use to make include sound in their project.

In this module, users will learn how to work with natural sound and add audio files, such as music or a voiceover, to a project. This module also discusses using audio in combination with video as a transition between clips.

  1. NAT sound
  2. Adding audio: Music from video
  3. Adding audio: Music from file
  4. Adding audio: Voiceover
  5. Audio transitions

This module requires downloading of four video files and two audio files. The video files are: march.mov, musket.mov, cannon.mov, and fort.mov. The audio files are fife.mov and mtaps.wav. These files should be downloaded before proceeding. Instructions for downloading will appear in the pop-up window.
