This is one of the few beginner tutorials that show you right away the importance of connecting clips and also being able to move the connection point. It's one of the most fundamental aspects to understanding the magnetic timeline and I think the biggest hurdle for newcomers, especially since no other NLE has this feature. Bravo for making it a priority!

As I’m new to FCP is really seems like a foreign language and hence requires a lot of learning. Other video editing programs I have used have been more like DAW, s in the way they work. 
There are many “ how to” videos out there and I thank everyone for them. By looking at them all, you pick up different tips and methods to accomplish the same task.
This video had a slightly more practical slant on “how to” and a lot of things that were a mystery are now solved. Things that were glossed over elsewhere were explained and the learning process is becoming easier as these explanations have made other processes, such as multi cam a more logical process(if that’s the right term). Even his advertisement was informative.
Everything is easy when you know how.
So thank you Dylan.

[DashofTing]

This video was so great and straight forward. I need to watch it one more time and jot down all of the shortcuts.

[KrisD]

I’ve viewed several beginning tutorials and yours is best.

[koRiAnaV]

oh my gosh! this is the best tutorial ive ever seen, others are just confusing af or incomplete, ur video gave me a full understanding and answered most of my problem and question, i now can really start using my final cut pro that has been sitting in my laptop for so long, thank you so much for making this video 🙂

[claudioagmfilho]

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, Best and easiest to understand tutorials on YouTube!

[dscmatr]

As always another excellent video. Appreciate the refresher!

[MacNerfer]

Very helpful video, I'm finally moving from Final Cut Express on my old iMac to Final Cut Pro on the laptop, and the changes are dramatic.
However, for the beginner, a few things were skipped, like using the arrow keys to move back and forth a clip at a time. Meanwhile you jumped into customizing keyboard commands, which is probably not needed until you're pretty comfortable with all the features you're going to need (so you don't borrow a key from something else that becomes important).

Edit - just applied the H.264 codec instead of default Apple high-quality - what a space saver! Now my files can go on my cheap USB sticks I want to hand out to family members :)

Very helpful Dylan, Thank you and happy new year.

[TheMetalMag]

AS an old fcp 3 to 5 user the x got me confused n lost so thank you for your video

[jsewing]

I've been using FCP since 2018. For the most part have learned and struggled along the way with personal / Amateur / Hobby type videos. I've recently put the FCP Hobby on a higher priority, and you have caught my eye with your videos; but I have to say this "The Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Final Cut Pro for 2023", is by far the best FCP video I've seen. Likely to watch it a few more time making notes on the letter shortcuts like Q, E, etc. I like that you keep the information coming fast and furious. You explain why your screen is different when you need to; and you probably edit out goofs. Just a clean and helpful flow of presentation. This video was very comprehensive, I've been doing a few things the hard way because I didn't know better. Any hoot, Thanks, will hit like, have already been subscribed for months. Think I'll look into your memberships. THANKS

[DMGrayVids]

This may be the best FCP guide ever! I have watched many, and learned bits and pieces, but Dylan, you my friend teach from a place absent of showboating - thank you for with great detail explaining and demoing every item you discuss without arrogance, but rather on a spectrum and place where one can come and learn and ACTUAL APPLY what being demonstrated.

I saw you on Dylan John's page.

I know you could have, but did not - push by my class to learn all your tips and tricks, THANKS, that means a lot for me, I am a novice, and I will most likely never do editing for profit.

Thanks

I have been using Final Cut for over a year now, but learned a couple new things in this video that are really going to help with editing. Very well made video Dylan.

[BlackTieProductions]

Thanks for the FCP tips and tricks...you are clear and concise...giving the shortcuts needed...and showing exactly what they do...I am moving over to FCP and DaVinci from 20+ years with Premiere....so far so good...Thanks!

[StudioMotors]

Your content is so useful and your presentation is so crisp. Thank you for the effort, keep them coming! 🎬🎬🎬

[ELTExperiences]

A great tutorial for those that want to go into creating and editing videos with Final Cut Pro in 2023. Thank you for sharing this Dylan! 😊

[pjrobs]

ive been learning FCP this past week and youre the first to inform me of the tilda key function (and cmd+option clicking) and I really appreciate it! great all-encompassing video, probably the best intro video to FCP tbh

[nayyarrazakazmi]

Dylan, i like your narrative style of explaining. You explain in a very effective manner which is a hallmark of an excellent teacher. Your videos are concise and precise and explains the concepts very well. Keep it up bro. And by the way, i like your hairstyle as well.

[DrMuppy]

Dylan - Thank you for your clear, simple introductory piece on FCP. I have been muddling my way through for some time now, and this takes me back to the primary mile posts of the editing process. Reminding is good, especially for older users like me.
