How to Use a Fade In/Out Transition in Your Property Videos

January 03 2013

Here's another great tip for all the DIY media geeks in our audience.

VScreen's latest ReelRebel episode shows us how to create a fade-in/out transition. This simple video effect is exactly what it sounds like: transitioning the viewer from a black screen to the opening scene, or from the closing scene to black again.

Because this transition is more pronounced than, say, a cross-dissolve, it should only be used to punctuate the beginning and end of your property videos. It can also be used, sparingly, for major scene changes, like transitioning from outside to inside shots.

The video below shows us how to create fade effects in iMovie, Final Cut Pro, and Adobe Premiere. Use a different program? Let us know and we'll walk you through the steps!
