If you’ve ever seen the video effect where a person or an object moves in front of text on the screen you’ll know it looks very cool. 

Now you can learn how to do that effect in Final Cut Pro X.

This is one effect that can give your video a professional edge and make it seem like a Hollywood feature. It's little effects like this that make your video stand out. Many people think that effects like this and others are difficult to pull off and require additional software, but for Final Cut, and Premiere, but you can create this effect quite easily.
