The Retro Effect is perfect if you're aiming for a nostalgic vibe.

  1. Place your footage on the track.
  2. Go to the effects panel and find the Retro folder.
  3. First, apply the Retro Cinema effect.
  4. To enhance the retro feel, apply the Retro Noise effect as well.

This effect is widely favored for corporate videos and city vlogs.

Transitions

Now, let’s explore three unique transitions you can use in your videos.

5. Push Transition

For a smooth text animation, use the Push Transition.

  1. Place the background on the track and add a default title with your text.
  2. Go to the transitions section and look for the slide folder to find various push transitions, such as push right or push left.
  3. Apply the push right transition to your background clip and adjust its duration.
  4. Shift the title back a few frames and apply the push transition to your text as well.

This creates a dynamic visual effect when transitioning text.

6. Film Roll Transition

The Film Roll Transition adds a classic cinema touch.

  1. Place your first clip on the track, followed by the second clip.
  2. In the transitions section, search for "film roll transition."
  3. You will find different types; select one and place it where the two clips intersect.

This transition is perfect for vlogs or tutorials, facilitating smooth segment shifts.

7. Wipe and Erase Transition

Finally, the Wipe and Erase Transition is versatile for various purposes.

  1. Find this transition in the transition tab under the slider folder.
  2. Use it to reveal clips either from one side (wipe) or with a simple edge (erase).
  3. You can use this transition effectively to show before-and-after clips, adjusting the duration to control the speed of the transition.

If you color-grade, for instance, you can show the changes effectively using this transition.
