How to rotate iPhone video orientation in Final Cut Pro X?

5 years 2 months ago #631574 by Street Shark
I have some video that I recorded from my iPhone X that is on it's side and I'm in FCPX trying to figure out how to rotate the clip to landscape. 

Do you know how this is done?

Looks like you should find the "transform" option... I didn't read the entire article... Maybe this will help

Select the clip from your timeline.  View 'Inspector' on right (you can find this under the "Window" tab from top if you don't see it).  Under 'Spatial Conform', move from "Fit" to "None".  Then from above under 'Transform' rotate 90 degrees (or however you need too), then scale to 66.67%.  You should be all set now.

After dragging your iPhone video to the timeline in Final Cut Pro, go to the lower-right corner of the Viewer window to press on the "Transform" option. Or you can utilize the shortcut "Shift-T" to open this function. Then the blue Rotate Handle will show at the center of the window. You need to drag the handle to rotate the video to a requested orientation. If you don't think the process is simple, try the direct alternative - Joyoshare Media Cutter and Editor. On both Windows and Mac, it can help you to rotate any video with ease.

You can also edit the video before you export it from your phone.
