Add 360° video effects in Final Cut Pro for Mac
Final Cut Pro includes special 360° versions of some standard effects (such as blur, glow, and sharpen effects). You can apply these effects to 360° clips without creating seams, unwanted distortions, or other artifacts.
Select a 360° clip in the Final Cut Pro timeline, then click the Effects button in the top-right corner of the timeline (or press Command-5).
In the Effects browser, select the 360° category below Video, then double-click an effect to apply it to the selected clip.
You can also apply an effect by dragging it directly to a clip in the timeline.
For more information about adding clip effects, see Intro to clip effects in Final Cut Pro for Mac.
You can use the 360° Patch effect to cover up unwanted imagery (such as a camera or tripod) in a 360° scene. See Add the 360° Patch effect in Final Cut Pro for Mac.
