Fisheye filter in Motion

Distorts an image as if it were seen through a fisheye lens. The result is an extremely wide-angle warping effect also known as barrel distortion. Use the Fisheye filter with a negative Amount value as an imprecise way to correct for barrel distortion in images shot using a wide-angle lens.

Adjust this filter using the parameter controls in the Filters Inspector:

• Radius: Sets the radius of the fisheye lens effect.

• Amount: Sets the amount and nature of the distortion. Lower values create concave distortion; higher values create convex distortion.

• Center: Sets the position of the center of the fisheye effect. Drag the Center onscreen control to adjust its value in the canvas.

• Mix: Sets the percentage of the original image that’s blended with the distorted image.

• Publish OSC: Publishes the filter’s onscreen controls in Final Cut Pro. For more information on creating content for use in Final Cut Pro, see Intro to Final Cut Pro templates.
