The Adjustment Layer V1

The ultimate way to control your Final Cut Pro edits.

NEW! GET THE DELUXE ADJUSTMENT LAYERS FOR 2023 WITH 10 FLAVOURS, CUSTOM-MADE FOR THE LATEST SOCIAL PLATFORM GUIDELINES

Comes in 3 flavours:

- 30seconds for your IG Reels, (2022 update: Meta has changed the max length for Reels. The new DELUXE adjustment layers product includes the latest platform specific lengths)

- 1 minute for your YouTube Shorts or

- 10min for your longer projects that you can then customise to fit.

Once you’ve unzipped and put it into your Users/username/Movies/Motion Templates/Titles/

folder you can find it in Final Cut under….you’ve guessed it, the Titles browser.

Then just add it into your timeline above the clips you want to affect.

Now you’re free to whack whatever effects, corrections and transformations you desire onto that layer - and ALL the clips under it get the FX!

Typically, at the end of an edit, I’ll drop a LUT (or two) onto it, play with the Mix levels and add some final colour wheels to tweak the overall look of the project.
