Using ProRandom in Final Cut Pro
Integrated Text & Video Randomization
With ProRandom, video editors can now integrate the movement of up to two layers of text with video footage. ProRandom works by using a virtual camera to create the illusion of a shaky camera. With the click of the mouse, users can easily generate new camera movements to create a seamless effect within Final Cut Pro.

Position and Rotational Effects
ProRandom allows users to alter the degree of randomization in both X, Y, and Z space. Use the controls found in the inspector window to adjust the amount of pixels the camera will vary in position. With rotational randomization controls, users can also adjust the dynamics of the camera’s X, Y, and Z rotations. Creating an erratic camera is extremely intuitive with ProRandom.

Full, Fixed, and Partial control presets.
Because some scenes may require greater camera specificity, ProRandom includes presets with partial and full control over the frequency and noisiness of each randomization parameter. For more complicated scenes, users can choose full control to alter the individual frequency and noisiness of a camera’s random behavior. For more simple scenes, a fixed frequency and noisiness level may suffice.

Intuitive Controls in Final Cut Pro
Alter the amount of positional and rotational randomization with sliders that can be found in the inspector window. Under animation controls, users may adjust the type of randomization (add, subtract, or add & subtract), and the frequency and noisiness of the cameras erratic behavior. With “new animation”, editors can simply click to create a new animation. ProRandom is a Final Cut Pro exclusive plugin.
