Hi All, I want to add a 'fade to black' effect when going from one clip to another and I can't figure out how. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Sorry, I have QT Pro.

  • Fade to black between slides in slideshow, HOW in Lr 5.4???

    I'm using Lr 5.4.
    How do I do a simple fade to black between images in a slideshow? I don't want a dissolve. Many thanks for your pointers.

    As part of your testing make sure you've tried exporting JPGs from the same folder as the CR2s you're exporting as original, and export JPGs from CR2s to the same folder as you're exporting your originals.  This would test LR's read and write permissions from and to the folders being used.
    From this document you can see that all the LR files other than the program, are under the /Users folder with different values possible for each user, so the difference could be that the users that work are using the original LR defaults, if you have just started using LR with them after you started having this problem, or at least that the user with the problem has some oddball settings that are interfering with Export as Original.

    You can test for the Preferences being off by either copying the preferences from a user that has the problem to a user that doesn't have the problem--probably through an external or common folder, or be deleting the preferences file from the user that has the problem and see if it resolves.  Moving the preferences file or renaming it may be better than deleting it if no change is seen, then you can restore the preferences back by moving or renaming the file back to the original location and name.

    But if I want ONLY fade out (or in) I can't do it...
    OK, I understand what you mean now! I assumed you were asking about the normal Fade In or Fade Out using the transition from the Transitions panel. But I guess you mean the Fade function specific to a Cutaway. When you double-click on a Cutaway the Inspector opens. Here you can set the Cutaway Fade duration. But as you say, it only provides for both fade in and fade out as one operation - you can't set the fades individually (it's both or nothing).
    BUT, try the method outlined by Karsten Schluter above. It will give you the same effect and will enable you to fade either side of the Cutaway (or add other transitions).

  • How do i fade out a video clip?

    how do i fade out a video clip?

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
    In the absence of that information, I will generalize, tending toward Premiere Elements 11....
    a. Right click the Expert workspace Timeline video, select Fade from the pop up menu and then the wanted Fade Audio or Video command.
    b. In version 11, you could click on Applied Effects/Applied Effects Palette/Opacity Panel and the shortcut Fades there.
    c. You could keyframe the Opacity property in the Applied Effects Palette/Opacity or via the video track content rubberband at the Timeline Level.
    Please supply more information for fading in out your video and audio track contents.
    Thanks.

  • How do I fade to black in a slideshow?

    It's been years since I've used Flash, so I'm a bit rusty.
    But I am trying to use the slideshow presentation template and do
    transitions between the slides, but I'm not getting the results I
    want.
    I'm putting in the preset behaviors for fade in and out, and
    what I get is a crossfade. What I want is a fade to black, and a
    fade up from black (a dip to black), and not a crossfade. Is there
    a simple scripting way to do this that I can put on the
    presentation (master) slide? If been playing with setInterval to
    delay the transition but I can't get it to work. Thanks.

    Add a "Fade Through Black" transition after your last clip.
    For the volume fade, you can drag the Fade handles.

  • Making compound clip adds unwanted black between clips

    I have a 2 minute psa that was shot in HD on the NX5 and edited on FCPX. I needed to put it together with other PSAs to make a longer show so I selected all the clips on the timeline and made a ‘compound clip’. The compound clip looks like one clip on the timeline and it should be able to be copied to another timeline. When I watched it back though, FCPX had introduced flash frames of black in between all of the cuts on the timeline, throwing all of the titles out of whack as well. Why did this happen?
    1.  Original Storyline
    2.  Original storyline made into a compound clip.
    3.  When I play it back I get flash frames in-between each clip so i checked the compound clip and found that it introduced black between each clip.

    I ran into this problem too and found a quick solution that may work for anyone who encounters this bug.
    THE PROBLEM: In one of my Projects, when creating a compound clip of the entire Project (so that I could apply Project-wide color and audio correction), gaps were inexplicably added to certain cuts. I don't know why. I first tried to work around this by exporting a Master File, but this also created the same gaps. Ugh.
    THE SOLUTION: Duplicate your Project and in the duplicate, select all and create a compound clip. After creating the compound clip, double-click the compound clip in the Event Browser. This will open the compound clip, with all its bits and pieces exposed, in the Timeline. Go to the bottom-left corner of the Timeline and click the little button there to open the Timeline Index. Do a search for "gap". Select all the results in the list and press the delete key.
    NOTE: Don't forget to duplicate your original Project (before creating a compound clip with the duplicate) so that you have it as a reference and a backup in case something goes wrong. I have not carefully analyzed this glitch and am not 100% sure this workaround is bulletproof. I also am not sure what is causing the OP's titles to be "thrown out of whack" as I didn't have that particular issue, so this "fix" may not actually fix that part of the problem.

  • How do I do smooth transitions between clips?

    After trimming clips, what type of effects do I need to use for smoother transitions? I tried several types of video transitions, for example Crossover Dissolve between the clips. But I want to show as if I never did any cuts or clippings even though I have done it. Did I make this clear?

    You may want to ask yourself, "Why do I want to use a transition?"
    As you think about this question watch any network TV program and look for the transitions.  You will generally find very few transitions in a professional video. Those you do find will generally be dips to black rather than cross-dissolves.  You will generally find cross-disolves being used only where the editor wanted to give a sense of time changing.
    This s a situation in which less is more.  I believe that a 1 sec cross-dissolve draws more attention to itself than would a 0 second cut.

  • FCP, won't allow fade in/fade out dissolve between clips?

    I'm trying to add this dissolve between two clips. When I drag the dissolve over to the timeline, the dissolve covers one clip but not the other? There is not a frame space between them.
    Thanks in advance.

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use FCP. There's a FCP Support Community where everybody uses FCP. You should also post this question there.

  • Is it possible to increase transition time between clips in iMovie '09?

    I've edited a movie and to stop it jumping so much I want to increase the time between clips so that it fades to black between clips. Is this possible?

    There is a "fade to black" transition  in iMovie 09. Does that work for you?

  • How do I delete space between clips in the timeline.

    I am adding several hundred photo's to the timeline. When I add them as a group, the the duration of each photo differs. I select a group of photo's, change the duration to 4.00 seconds and the clips change to 4 seconds but then there is a large space between each clip. Is there a way to select a group of clips in the timeline and have them connect to each other? How can I remove the space between clips?
    Thanks for your help.

    What you are describing happens when you have the position tool selected.
    Hit 'A' to make sure you are using the select tool (also known as the 'Arrow' tool, hence the 'A' shortcut).
    Unfortunately, your screenshots do not show which tool is active, but I am pretty convinced that that is your problem. Like Russ said, their look pretty similar to each other. But they work very differently.
    Here is a picture showing the arrow tool (in blue):
    And here is one with the Position tool (again, in blue):

  • Using final cut pro x how to fade to black

    with final cut pro x, how do you fade to black?

    So, at this point I feel compelled to throw out a few 'pearls of wisdom' for the self-taught beginners who use this forum;
    It IS a place to come for expert advice from a mix of enthusiasts and professionals, and yes, you can get problems solved here that you won't find answers to anywhere else (with the possible exception of Creative Cow). Some problems get answered better here than from Apple Support.
    This does not mean that you (the beginner) are absolved from a little study on your own. BROWSE the forum a little before you ask a question - you may even discover something that you didn't even know that you didn't know.
    Speaking of youtube; take a look at the Izzyvideo tutorial or some of the others posted there. Learn the basics, and then ask a question. If we are willing to take the time to answer questions, then you should (at least!) be willing to take the time to do a little research.

  • How can I do a simple fade transition between clips??

    I'm trying to learn my new Premiere Elements 9. I am a simple man, with simple needs. I like to just do a simple fade transition between video clips. There is no "fade" option on the transitions for PE9, I have tried "cross disolve" and "non-additive disolve", and they are freaking wierd. The one that comes the closest is cross-dissolve, It fades out the first clip fine, but the follow on clip starts with an awkward momentary freeze frame, which is not acceptable.
    Any thoughts?
    Clem

    A "fade" is a just that. It fades to black.
    Fades to black are far from weird.They are very useful for indicating a complete change of subject or chapter in a long video story.
    I think you are using the wrong descriptions,
    Probably you want a cross dissolve where one scene slowly dissapears while the next one appears, the average picture level being constant.
    There are two of them provided in transitions. Cross dissolve (what you call a fade) and non additive dissolve.
    They both work perfectly if you apply them correctly and you have set up your project correctly to match your video camera or slides. (see many other posts on this)
    You simply drag the 'transition icon' for the dissolve to the cut line between the two clips. Cant be any easier than that can it?
    If you are seeing jerky results, it is because your computer is not fast enough to preview unrendered video (or set up right) - so render it!
    As I said there should be no red lines at the top of the timeline where the transition is (otherwise render just that red part of the timeline)
    More advanced:-
    The dissolve period plainly shows in the video track. You can have it before, centered or after the cut depending on where you want the dissolve to start or finish in relation to moving objects in the video. (Right click and select effect properties to adjust)
    You can even change the speed of the dissolve by dragging the edges of the effect boix in the timeline

  • How do you FADE UP FROM BLACK and FADE OUT TO BLACK in iMovie 11?

    With all the silly effects in iMovie 11, I can't figure out how to do a simple FADE UP FROM BLACK or FADE OUT TO BLACK. Anybody know?

    Fade to Black does it all. At the beginning of the sequence it fades up from black. Between clips it fades to black and back from black. At the end of the sequence it fades to black.

  • I have imovie 9 and want to know how to fade in to a clip???
