Hey Friends!

This week I'm going to tell you what is proxy media and show you how to use proxy media in final cut pro to speed up your workflow and save you poor computer fan.

Using proxy media in final cut is really easy and speeds up your computer so you can focus on editing. Creating proxy media is super simple and i'll show you how to create proxys on import and how to transcode your footage after import. If you are editing 4k footage in fcpx then these are a real life saver!
