8. Depending on the coordinate system you chose, adjust the following position
parameters:
If you chose Spherical:
• Latitude: Rotate the clip plane up or down around the center.
• Longitude: Rotate the clip plane left or right around the center.
• Distance: Move the clip plane closer to or farther from the center.
• Scale: Change the clip’s size (without affecting the distance or parallax).
If you chose Cartesian:
• X Position: Move the clip plane on the x-axis.
• Y Position: Move the clip plane on the y-axis.
• Z Position: Move the clip plane on the z-axis.
9. If you want the clip plane to always face the center, select the Auto-orient checkbox.
10. To set the local orientation of the clip, adjust the following parameters:
• X Rotation: Rotate the clip plane on its x-axis.
• Y Rotation: Rotate the clip plane on its y-axis.
• Z Rotation: Rotate the clip plane on its z-axis.
• Convergence: Adjust the apparent convergence point of elements in stereoscopic
space, allowing them to be perceived as closer or farther away. (The Convergence
parameter appears for rectilinear clips in stereoscopic projects.)
• Interaxial: Adjust the stereoscopic depth of the selected clip. The effect becomes
apparent when you adjust the clip’s local orientation. (The Interaxial parameter
appears for rectilinear clips in stereoscopic projects.)

Add 360° clips to standard Final Cut Pro projects
You can add 360° clips to a standard rectilinear project. When you export the rectilinear
project, the 360° clips are converted to rectilinear clips (which are not navigable by the
viewing audience). However, you can create the effect of cinematic camera moves with
360° clips by animating tilts, pans, and rolls (or create interesting “tiny planet” effects)
before you export.
1. Make sure the 360° clips have the correct 360° metadata tags in the Final Cut Pro
browser.
See Check settings for imported 360° clips.
2. Add one or more 360° clips to a rectilinear project.
See Create a new project in Final Cut Pro and Intro to adding clips in Final Cut Pro.
Note: If you add a stereoscopic 360° clip to a rectilinear project, Final Cut Pro displays
the video image from the left eye only.
3. Select the clip or clips in the timeline.
