Nick Haurauz has directed and filmed a host of celebrities such as Nelly Furtado, Lady Gaga, and Richard Branson. He was responsible for crafting video magic for clients such as Diageo, Virgin Mobile, United Way, and Procter and Gamble. He has an uncanny ability to engage his students and create a level of relatedness that keeps them coming back for more. As an FCP X, Motion 5, After Effects, Premiere Pro, and an Avid-certified trainer, he is able to put his BA in Film and Sociology from the University of Toronto to good use. In 2005, Nick founded Inconscience Productions and continues to work with domestic and international brands to shoot, produce, and cut masterpieces. In 2010, he was handed the opportunity of a lifetime to co-edit a feature documentary entitled My Father and the Man in Black; the untold story of a bad boy Johnny Cash, his talented but troubled manager, Saul Holiff, and a son searching for his father in the shadow of a legend. When he is not busy impressing his students at Witz Education and travelling to or from post-production conferences, this half Ukrainian, half Trinidadian can be found playing tennis. This is his first book!

A brief tour of the Library tab

Motion's Library is very similar to Final Cut Pro's Media Browser. Unlike the File Browser where we import material from outside of Motion, the Library contains filters, behaviors, generators, content, and presets available within Motion. It also gives us a gateway to a few external application libraries, such as iTunes and iPhoto. In this recipe, we'll have an overview of the Library tab.

How to do it...

  1. Launch Motion. Set the Preset to Broadcast HD 720p, Frame Rate to NTSC-DV, 29.97, and Duration to 10 seconds. Press OK.

  2. Click on the Library tab located on the left-hand side of the interface. Take a second to look at all the categories that are displayed. Choose Behaviors. On the right-hand side, a list of subcategories display. Currently All is selected, and the content of that subcategory appears in the lower part of the window, as displayed in the following screenshot:

  3. At the bottom of the Library tab, click on the magnifying glass icon. Similar to Spotlight...
