SquidFX Shadow Type for FCPX

Elegant titles with lighting and shadows.

SquidFX Shadow Type creates dynamic titles with organic lighting and shadows.  It is ideal for projects where elegance is delivered through subtlety.  The look can also be applied to any logo or graphic.

A “Drop Zone” effect is also included and allows you to apply the look to any graphic or logo. Shadow Type is distributed exclusively by our friends at FxFactory.

Helpful Presets
We created 12 unique presets to speed up your workflow. Choose from a variety of fullscreen options, lower thirds and more. Then personalize them with your own fonts and color choices.

Versatile Titles
As a video editor it can be a struggle to find elegant titles that don’t overpower your work. We took a nuanced approach to Shadow Type so that it compliments a wider variety of needs. Here’s a tip: lower the background opacity of the title so your clip shines through and stays center-stage.

Designed for FCPX
Shadow Type was designed from the ground up for FCPX. The inspector provides percission control over appearance and animation. It’s easy to reposition the title because important graphic elements are locked to your text as you drag it around the screen.

Not just for Text
A special Drop Zone allows the title to be used with graphics and logos. Of course, you can tint a graphic just as easily as changing the color of your text.
