1
00:00:00,420 --> 00:00:06,210
So in this video I'm going to show you how to apply basic transitions between your clips in your timeline
2
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:11,550
so you can make really nice logs and I'll get straight into it I'll show you the ones that I like to
3
00:00:11,550 --> 00:00:13,550
use in other videos.
4
00:00:13,550 --> 00:00:18,870
I'll explain how to do things like a loom fade and other things like that but I like to keep my transitions
5
00:00:18,870 --> 00:00:21,240
very basic so I'll show you real quick.
6
00:00:21,240 --> 00:00:27,630
So I got here a vlog on your screen right now and this is one that I created yesterday and I've got
7
00:00:27,630 --> 00:00:29,740
some clips on my timeline here already.
8
00:00:29,790 --> 00:00:32,040
So video clips just like that.
9
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,660
And the first transition that I like is very very basic.
10
00:00:35,790 --> 00:00:37,710
It's just the straight cut that's all.
11
00:00:37,710 --> 00:00:40,430
So I'll play this back and you'll see what I mean.
12
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:48,300
Have a cut some slow music cut and then another cut coming up.
13
00:00:48,300 --> 00:00:51,210
Cut cut.
14
00:00:51,540 --> 00:00:56,730
So as you can see I've just got simple cuts between my video clips and my time line so you don't need
15
00:00:56,730 --> 00:00:58,980
to be too fancy with your transitions.
16
00:00:58,980 --> 00:01:04,120
I like to keep my transitions very basic that way people don't get too distracted when they watch my
17
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:04,920
logs.
18
00:01:05,010 --> 00:01:08,380
They're not distracted from the story that I'm trying to tell.
19
00:01:08,490 --> 00:01:14,850
You'll find that usually the simpler you transitions the more engaged your audience will be when they
20
00:01:14,850 --> 00:01:15,720
watch you have logs.
21
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:21,780
They're not going to be you know distracted with really quirky and cheesy transitions but that's one
22
00:01:21,780 --> 00:01:22,500
that you can use.
23
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:26,100
And I like to use on and I still use on a consistent basis.
24
00:01:26,430 --> 00:01:31,320
The second that I like to use is the cross dissolve and I'll show you how to do that.
25
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:36,960
So if you click on these if you go over here you'll see there's two arrows click on that go down to
26
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:41,540
effects or open up this window here if you see where it says.
27
00:01:41,580 --> 00:01:48,940
Video transitions click on the arrow and then see where it says dissolve click on that.
28
00:01:48,940 --> 00:01:54,780
I've got some dissolves in here which I like the ones that I do like the most cross dissolve to black
29
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:56,250
and dip to white.
30
00:01:56,250 --> 00:02:03,240
These three some other very favorite transitions that are very easy to apply and look to be honest with
31
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:03,590
you.
32
00:02:03,660 --> 00:02:10,320
You can just go into the search box here type in cross and then it will automatically pop up here or
33
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:16,260
you can talk and dip and automatically when I type in dip here in the search dip to black and tip to
34
00:02:16,290 --> 00:02:18,280
white automatically pop up down here.
35
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:23,530
So you don't need to go through the tedious task of you know drop down menu drop down menu.
36
00:02:23,660 --> 00:02:28,410
You know I mean it's like three clicks but you know I just find that it's easier just to type it in
37
00:02:28,410 --> 00:02:30,860
search type and dip and they will come up there.
38
00:02:30,870 --> 00:02:34,790
Type in cross and we'll come up down here cross dissolve.
39
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:44,730
So if I take this transition and I drag it over to my timeline I can drop this transition either on
40
00:02:44,730 --> 00:02:51,080
one side or I can drop it between the two clips and I typically drop my transition between my two clips
41
00:02:51,410 --> 00:02:52,300
like that.
42
00:02:52,370 --> 00:02:58,550
Now if I zoom in if I hold down the old care my keyboard zoom in you'll see that the transition has
43
00:02:58,550 --> 00:03:01,300
been applied across both clips if I play that back.
44
00:03:01,310 --> 00:03:02,360
This is what it looks like
45
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,510
now it's obviously a little slow.
46
00:03:08,150 --> 00:03:13,990
It's a little slow because I'm also recording my screen but play that one more time.
47
00:03:15,370 --> 00:03:17,420
OK so that's one transition.
48
00:03:17,420 --> 00:03:24,800
The next one that I like is dip to black if I click on this and drag it over the next two clips.
49
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:25,790
Watch this.
50
00:03:25,820 --> 00:03:34,700
This is about dip to black looks like to the clip itself will get more dipped to black and then fade
51
00:03:34,700 --> 00:03:38,140
into the next clip right.
52
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,490
The next one I like is dipped to white.
53
00:03:40,590 --> 00:03:43,800
If I drag that over between the next two clips this is what it looks like.
54
00:03:44,380 --> 00:03:53,140
So instead of dipping to black it's going to dip to white this time just like that so that's their.
55
00:03:53,370 --> 00:03:54,720
They're my favorite ones that I like.
56
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,830
Now show you some cool things you can do.
57
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:01,260
Now start with the first transition here I've got my cross dissolved between these two clips.
58
00:04:01,260 --> 00:04:07,020
Now I can make this effect occur over a greater length of time.
59
00:04:07,020 --> 00:04:14,460
All I need to do is click on the transition and if I move my mouse you'll see that my cursor changes
60
00:04:14,740 --> 00:04:15,110
right.
61
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,270
See that cursor change when it changes.
62
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:24,960
I know that I've hit the end of that that transition and I can click and drag that out so that my transition
63
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:29,610
is now going to take place over a greater period of time between my two clips watch this
64
00:04:32,890 --> 00:04:40,200
a much longer transition if I grab the same transition and I shrink it right in the transition will
65
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:50,200
take place over a much abrupt more abrupt and much shorter period of time.
66
00:04:50,290 --> 00:04:54,690
Now if you listen closely this is kind of going on beyond here.
67
00:04:54,760 --> 00:05:01,750
You hear the music that's playing in the background and then listen to the abruptness of the music right
68
00:05:01,750 --> 00:05:06,040
here that beat in the in the music right.
69
00:05:07,570 --> 00:05:12,700
So that transition being so short and abrupt like that is almost appropriate to the background music
70
00:05:12,730 --> 00:05:14,650
that's playing.
71
00:05:14,650 --> 00:05:22,720
If I take that transition and I make it longer now remember I can also double click on this transition
72
00:05:23,030 --> 00:05:26,470
for double click on the transition this duration window pops up.
73
00:05:26,470 --> 00:05:31,010
I can make the duration longer just like that.
74
00:05:31,030 --> 00:05:31,490
Right.
75
00:05:35,210 --> 00:05:42,080
All now that transition is taking longer to to pay back.
76
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:47,100
But I mean here the background track so for me doesn't sound right.
77
00:05:47,140 --> 00:05:53,080
But that's completely up to your creative decision how you want your transitions to sync in with your
78
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,180
background track.
79
00:05:54,190 --> 00:05:54,870
OK.
80
00:05:55,150 --> 00:05:58,270
Now if I click on this transition here I want to show you this.
81
00:05:58,330 --> 00:06:04,450
If I go over to effects controls over here in the top left hand side if I click on this transition you'll
82
00:06:04,450 --> 00:06:11,830
see I've got some controls that I can apply with my transition so if I click on this I can elect to
83
00:06:11,830 --> 00:06:17,440
have one side of my transition longer so watch on my timeline what happens.
84
00:06:18,310 --> 00:06:24,650
So now my cross dissolve is taking effect more on this side of the clip than this side over here.
85
00:06:25,420 --> 00:06:31,440
If I drag that in and stretch this side out you'll see the opposite occurs.
86
00:06:31,570 --> 00:06:32,720
Watch this.
87
00:06:36,390 --> 00:06:36,900
Okay.
88
00:06:37,010 --> 00:06:41,720
So you can play around with it but typically what I do is I usually just drag the whole thing into center
89
00:06:41,750 --> 00:06:44,130
like that between my two clips just like that.
90
00:06:45,050 --> 00:06:50,780
So if I move along I've got here dipped to black and again I can shorten this make it longer so that
91
00:06:50,780 --> 00:06:58,790
the effect takes time a nice gradual drop to black and I can do the same thing with the next one.
92
00:06:58,790 --> 00:07:06,620
Last thing I want to show you is how you can set default transitions so if I go over to if I just delete
93
00:07:06,620 --> 00:07:13,940
that for example and delete the next one if I go between my two clips if I click and if I right click
94
00:07:14,470 --> 00:07:19,550
serious has applied default transitions if I click on that it automatically is going to drop in the
95
00:07:19,550 --> 00:07:23,260
transition between the two clips that set as the default.
96
00:07:23,300 --> 00:07:29,210
So if I do this I actually it's already there see where it says it dipped to black on the left hand
97
00:07:29,210 --> 00:07:32,480
side here and there's a blue box around this transition.
98
00:07:32,570 --> 00:07:37,660
That means that dip to Black is set as the current default transition.
99
00:07:38,030 --> 00:07:44,990
If I want to change my default transition I can right click on this click on set selected as default
100
00:07:44,990 --> 00:07:49,730
transition so I can now make dip to white my new default transition.
101
00:07:49,730 --> 00:07:51,430
I'll do that right now click on this.
102
00:07:51,470 --> 00:07:57,110
You'll see the blue box will now change if I move over to my next two clips on my timeline right click
103
00:07:57,310 --> 00:07:57,690
apply.
104
00:07:57,710 --> 00:08:03,860
Default transitions you'll see now that the transition that's set as the default is dipped to white
105
00:08:03,980 --> 00:08:06,320
not dipped to black.
106
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:13,990
And the last thing is if you the second last thing actually if you want to delete your transitions between
107
00:08:14,030 --> 00:08:18,790
eclipse or you need to do is click on the transition and hit delete on your keyboard right.
108
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,160
That's one way of doing it just like that.
109
00:08:22,730 --> 00:08:24,020
And another cool trick as well.
110
00:08:24,020 --> 00:08:29,060
Before I get if I just move the transition over between these two clips.
111
00:08:29,060 --> 00:08:36,230
Another thing you can do if you click on the transition control copy on your keyboard and then go to
112
00:08:36,230 --> 00:08:38,930
the next to eclipse control paste.
113
00:08:38,930 --> 00:08:43,220
I can actually just paste my transition across just like that.
114
00:08:43,670 --> 00:08:49,700
So click control v control v control V.
115
00:08:49,700 --> 00:08:50,720
Just like that.
116
00:08:51,290 --> 00:08:52,160
And that's all there is to it.
117
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,590
So they're the transitions that are my favorite.
118
00:08:54,590 --> 00:09:00,890
There's the dip to white dip to Black Cross dissolve and just the straight cut between my clips so there's
119
00:09:00,890 --> 00:09:04,470
no right or wrong when it comes to what transitions to use.
120
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:10,790
It's just that some people overuse transitions so I don't recommend putting you know crazy transitions
121
00:09:10,790 --> 00:09:11,890
between you two clips.
122
00:09:11,900 --> 00:09:19,220
I don't want is that a good idea if you if you distract people by using fancy transitions between your
123
00:09:19,250 --> 00:09:25,940
clips in your blogs just keep it simple don't over complicated don't try and be all showy and fancy
124
00:09:26,180 --> 00:09:31,220
because people will just get distracted and they won't really focus on the story that you're trying
125
00:09:31,220 --> 00:09:32,390
to tell in your video.
126
00:09:32,390 --> 00:09:34,060
So I hope that was helpful.
127
00:09:34,070 --> 00:09:34,860
Stick around.
128
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,610
I'm going to continue in the next video.
