Create an Animated Text GIF using FCPX and Compressor

Using GIFs are a fun way to spice up your social media posts and even use them in your videos. Did you know you could create any GIF you can think of simply by using Final Cut Pro X and Compressor? It is very easy to do and if you combine this effect with animated titles, whether it is the built-in effects or ones you have purchased, you can get very amazing results.

One thing to note before you watch this tutorial is that you will not only need Final Cut Pro X (obviously) but you will also need Apple Compressor. Compressor is an amazing program for compressing your videos in many different formats and resolutions/file sizes. You might not use it all the time but it is always a great program to have in your toolbag when you need it!

Purchase Compressor from the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/compressor/id424390742?mt=12
