Learn how to easily move markers between clips in this Final Cut Pro X video tutorial.

Markers are a great collaborative tool in FCPX. Markers allow video editors to add edit notes, to-do items, and chapters. But if you’ve ever tried to copy and paste multiple markers between video clips you’ve probably been disappointed.

T. Payton has created a helpful video tutorial about copying markers across multiple video clips. The tutorial covers:

Copying Multiple Markers
Trimming Clips to Sync Markers
Revealing Markers on Trimmed Clips

The techniques used in this tutorial are useful for changing out proxies, adding in synced video files, and copying markers between new versions of a project.
