When you select clips to export to Motion, the following properties are retained with 
the exported project.

When exporting to Motion, Final Cut Pro HD 

 

 export properties omitted from 

the list above, such as filters and generators.

 

In the Browser, the sequence or group of items exported to Motion becomes a single 
Motion clip item, with a Motion filename extension. 

If the selection was in the Timeline when it was exported, and Embed Motion Content 
was selected, then you also see the new Motion clip item in the Timeline. And, the 
content of the Motion clip is updated as changes are saved to it in Motion (assuming 
it’s on the same computer). If Embed Motion Content was not selected, the content in 
the Timeline remains the same.

The audio associated with the Motion video clip remains exactly as it was before you 
exported. For example, if you exported from a selection of clips in the Timeline, the 
audio remains on the same audio tracks. Be sure to 

 

 as it 

will not be imported back into Final Cut Pro HD with the Motion project.

The audio exported to Motion is not imported when you bring the Motion project back into Final Cut Pro HD. The 

audio is only intended to be used in Motion for playback and markers. For this reason, make sure that you retain the 
audio clips.
