Creating Gradient Wipe Transition Effect

  1. Making Cuts: Start by importing your media and navigating to the cut point in the timeline. Use the Razor tool to make a cut at the desired frame.
  2. Applying Gradient Wipe: Select the cut clip, then navigate to the Effects panel and search for “Gradient Wipe.” Drag the effect onto the cut in your timeline.
  3. Adjusting Properties: Go to the Effect Controls panel for Gradient Wipe. Set Transition Completion to 0 at the start of your transition and animate it to 85 at the end by toggling the animation button.
  4. Adding Softness: For a more polished effect, adjust the Transition Softness to 25.

Now play your timeline to see the smooth transition effect applied. You can even reverse the effect by adjusting the keyframes accordingly.

Using Pro Cam Effect for Transitions

  1. Create Adjustment Layer: Place two video clips on the timeline, then create a new adjustment layer over them by selecting New Item > Adjustment Layer from the project panel.
  2. Apply Pro Cam Effect: Search for “Pro Cam” in the Effects panel. Drag it onto the adjustment layer.
  3. Setting Keyframes: In the Effect Controls, toggle the animation for brightness. Set initial brightness and adjust accordingly as the clips change.
  4. Play and Evaluate: Play your timeline to view the created transition effect.

Masking Transition Effect

  1. Layering Clips: Place two clips above each other on the timeline.
  2. Create Masks: Use the Pen tool to mask each clip. Adjust the positioning so they overlap correctly, setting the feathering on the masks to zero for hard edges.
  3. Color Mattes: You can also add color mats beneath the clips to enhance the effect visually. Use the New Item option to create a Color Matte and place it in the timeline.
  4. Final Edit: Adjust the scale and position of your clips and play through to see how the transition flows.

Flip Transition Effect

  1. Duplicate Clips: Create a duplicate of your clip by holding Alt (Option on Mac) and dragging.
  2. Insert Flip Effect: Go to the Effects panel and search for “Flip.” Apply Vertical Flip to your duplicated clip.
  3. Adjusting Margins and Masks: Ensure the masking fits well and adjust the shape as needed to avoid edges appearing abruptly.
  4. Adding Text: Use the Type tool to insert text onto your video, adjusting size and color as necessary for impact.
