It looks like it is going to have to wait until I upgrade to Final Cut Studio 2 (Yes- it is time to finally step away from Final Cut Pro 5 and Motion 2), but I am definitely going to try out these Final Cut Pro (and Motion) templates.
For the price, they seem like a steal. I am curious to see if anybody else tried them out, and how they are working for you.

To step up my editing game, I am taking a class from Larry Jordan (subscribe to his newsletter). August 4, in Folsom for $79. I can think of a worse way to spend a Tuesday.

You know that scene in the Indiana Jones movies (Indy made Dumbworld want to be an archaelogist when we were little) where the airplane flies over the map and a line forms showing the path of the flight (I think they use this effect in Little Miss Sunshine as well). Well, Videomaker.com shows you how to create this effect in their How to Use Adobe After Effects & Photoshop to Create the Line-Map Animation Effect tutorial.
Also, if you try it out, let me know and I will post a link to your efforts.
