<s:transitions>
        <s:Transition fromState="*" toState="log_in">
            <s:AnimateTransitionShader target="{this}" duration="1000"
                                       shaderByteCode="@Embed(source='nikos/pixelBlender/HexCells.pbj',
                                       mimeType='application/octet-stream')"/>
        </s:Transition>
        <s:Transition fromState="*" toState="*">
            <s:AnimateTransitionShader target="{logo}" duration="3000"
                                       shaderByteCode="@Embed(source='nikos/pixelBlender/Twist.pbj',
                                       mimeType='application/octet-stream')"/>
        </s:Transition>
