    i dont use final cut, but if there is also maybe a motion blur effect. or if you could just track a black or white bar/box on their face frame by frame.

    If your simply hiding identity is there not a mosaic effect?

    thats the type of effect i was lookin for yeah, dunno if its a standard effect on FCP though or else i over looked it.

    in the end i went with Static Noise, doesnt look as pretty as the Gaussain Blur or the mosaic effect would look but it does the job!!!

    thanks for the replies!!!
