Working with Final Cut Pro
You can add Motion projects directly to sequences in
Final Cut Pro and send Final Cut Pro sequence clips directly
to a new Timeline in Motion.
This appendix covers the following:
 Using Motion with Final Cut Pro (p. 1217)
 Using Motion Templates in Final Cut Pro (p. 1223)
Using Motion with Final Cut Pro
Integration between Motion and Final Cut Pro allows you to:
 Import Motion projects into Final Cut Pro: You can add motion graphics created in
Motion directly to your Final Cut Pro sequence without rendering.
 Update embedded Motion projects in Final Cut Pro: You can immediately see changes
to a Motion project in your Final Cut Pro sequence.
 Send Final Cut Pro clips or sequences to Motion: You can create new Motion projects
based on a selection of clips or a sequence in Final Cut Pro. You can use this feature
to sketch a motion graphics sequence in Final Cut Pro and then refine it in Motion.
The new Motion project can then be embedded in your Final Cut Pro sequence.
Note: Motion can import audio included in a Final Cut Pro project, but audio in a
Motion project does not appear in Final Cut Pro.
