How do you blur out a moving object using final cut?

I don't use Final Cut Pro, I'm actually a Win XP Premiere Pro user. In any case, the idea is the same and there are some tutorials online for both you can read to figure out the best way to do it in your situation. Try to google "blur in final cut" or "blur face in final cut".

Here's a quick explaination of how I was taught:

Duplicate the video layer where the blurring needs to be done. On that layer, put on a Gassuian Blur. Then, create a motion path for cropping. Crop around the blurred object and go frame by frame and keep cropping around the image. It may sound complicated, but it's pretty damn simple.

Now I'll pimp out my camera on sale on eBay... I need to sell this damn thang!

Dope! Your cousin wrote that? I bought it a while ago but have yet to even open it. Haven't run into a problem with FCP yet. It's a good reference manual for my brother, though!
