Subtitles of the Movie

Alright before we go any further let's go ahead and save our project here and I'll show you how to do this, this won't take very long certainly but we've got an untitled project, let's go file and go to save project or save project as, the first time we'll just click save project or of course we can do the command S as I've done here and now you decide where you want to save the thing. So you can save it to the desktop or you can certainly click in the drop down here and save it wherever the heck you want to. I'll save this on the root of my external drive here and we'll call it VTC tutorial and we'll call it one, something like that. So, let me click on save or just hit return on the keyboard and bingo now I've got VTC tutorial 1 up here that's launched in the browser and notice here that I can then open lots of different projects or I can take this project and I will close it just like that and now again there's really nothing in the sequence, I don't have a sequence open right now, I had the first, I had this blank sequence open in the other one so notice that the program looks like it closed but only some of the windows closed so again, here's the application, I'm still working with this application, here's my tool palette and audio meters here on the right side. If I want to open that up again all I have to do is click on file open where I can navigate to my external drive and double click on the icon and then open up this thing once again. Now the last thing I want to show you in this brief module here is just the behavior of why this is happening or if I were to close Final Cut Pro and open it up again this VTC tutorial 1 would automatically launch. So I can make this application hide if I want to which I can do with the Command H on the keyboard, I'll minimize this as well. So again next time if I were just to come down here to the dock and click on that icon, Final Cut Pro launches. The reason why I would see the VTC tutorial 1 is because of this. Go to your Final Cut Pro preferences, user preferences and we will be back here, trust me, because there is a lot of stuff to select, there's some that are not that significant but there are some that are very significant but for right now all I want to show you is this, open last project on application launch. Also notice that the application also tried to auto save your projects. So it'll save a copy of your existing project every 30 minutes and if you're working with Final Cut and you forget to save it, if you forget to save a new project that you've opened up you'll be reminded because the auto save will kick in after 30 minutes and say hey you need to save this before I make an auto save copy. So that's something you probably want to leave on, that one is why Final Cut opens up the last project that was open. This also I leave on always because its usually a good idea, it helps you learn the keyboard shortcuts as you've already seen. So that is how to open up to save, close, re-open a project which is certainly important and again can we have multiple projects open? Absolutely, I can grab content from one project and copy it over to the other. So I can take a clip from here, move it over to this project that I'm working with, we'll do this later one, but again the reason why this is so easy to do is because you're really just dragging and dropping pointers around the original clips that are on your hard drive, external drive, they stay right where they were.
