I want to crop one of my videos to a non-standard size. Does anyone know of a tool that will allow me to do this easily? Can I do it in FCP?

Before anyone replies, know this: I do not want to have any black lines in the final video. ie/ I want the video window to match the size of the cropped video...

Any tips?

for some reason Quicktime calls this feature a Mask. Open your movie in Quicktime Pro and choose Movie -&gt; Get Movie Properties (command-j)
choose the Video track and Mask from the two pop-up menus and select an image file you've made with black where you want your movie to show through and white where you want it cropped off.
