Animation
|
|
Function |
|---|---|
|
Block Motion |
Break the video into a 3D rotating block that transitions between scenes. |
|
Flip Motion |
Flip one clip into another, vertically or horizontally, as a transition effect. |
|
Fold Motion |
Unfold or fold clips like paper layers, creating origami-like transitions. |
|
Pop Motion |
Snap popping transitions that make clips jump in or out. |
|
Pull Motion |
Create smooth, dynamic zoom transition to seamlessly pull one scene into place. |
|
Spin Motion |
Rotate your clips with seamless spinning effects, adding momentum between shots. |
|
Spring Motion |
Bring bouncy spring-like movement to scene changes. |
|
Travel Motion |
Slide one scene out while pushing the next in any direction. |
Dissolve
|
Name |
Function |
|---|---|
|
Additive Dissolve |
Adds color information from clip B to clip A, and then subtracts the color information of clip A from clip B. |
|
Blur Dissolve |
Apply a blur while dissolving between shots. |
|
Burn Alpha |
Use an alpha channel burn effect, where parts of the image dissolve away to reveal the next shot. |
|
Cross Dissolve |
Fades out clip A while fading in clip B. Works well at the beginning or end of a clip when you want to fade in or out from black. |
|
Dip To Black |
Fades clip A to black and then fades from black to clip B. Using Dip To Black at the beginning or end of a clip will also affect video on a lower track, which may be unexpected when a simple fade in or out of the targeted clip is wanted. Cross Dissolve may work better for this. |
|
Dip To Color |
Fades clip A to a solid color and then fades from that color to clip B. You can also add a blur to create a blur-to-color transition. |
|
Dip To White |
Fades clip A to white, then fades from white to clip B. |
|
Film Dissolve |
Blends more realistically, so dissolves look the way they should. Blends in a linear color space where gamma equals 1.0. |
|
Luma Fade |
Add transitions by fading the image based on brightness values from light to dark or vice versa. |
|
Morph Cut |
Creates a harmonious transition between two similar clips, usually of a person speaking. It analyzes the frames and uses face tracking and interpolation to smooth over jump cuts, making the result look like a continuous shot. |
|
Mosaic |
Apply a pixelated mosaic effect that breaks your image into geometric tiles. |

|
Glitch |
Rip between shots with sharp digital artifacts, RGB channel splits, and stuttered signal tears. |
|
Grunge |
Cut between scenes with raw film scratches, distressed textures, and strobing. |
|
Kaleidoscope |
Dissolve between scenes through rotating radial symmetry and intricate, faceted mirror geometry. |
|
Liquid Distortion |
