Is there a "Flash or White Wash" transition effect in FCP?

Hey guys,
I'm trying to get a transition effect of a "white Wash or like a Flash" in FCP5? It's an effect you see on tv when people get a make over from looking bad to looking really cool with a transition that looks like a flash or white wash.
Anyone please,
Thanks in advance,
Zia

I'm actually a fan of a combination of both Tom's and Andy's method.
Being old enough to remember film and the cool effects you'd get when stopping the camera (a number of frames that went to white as the film slowed in the gate to a stop-- number of frames depended totally on the camera. Asynchronous cameras were usually longer 6 frames or so, and the Arri's were usually 2 at most.)
Anyway, if you warp out a frame or two with the CC and use them in your opacity ramp, you can get some really cool stuff.

  • Keynote transition effects on fcp

    Just wondering if anyone know how I can use keynote effects on fcp. Or how I can get transition plugins that Keynote program is using to use in fcp.

    Hi MooVee,
    Afraid that Keynote and FCP are two different beasts, so there's no plug-in infrastructure or the like to share transition styles.
    You can, however, generate clips in Keynote and export them as QuickTime movies into Final Cut. I use Keynote as my primary titling tool, as it's so fast and easy to use. For creating titles, be sure that your Master has a Transparent (None) background, and your slide the same. Then create your title animation, and Export it as a QuickTime movie with the "Include transparency" checkbox ticked, and using the Animation compression settings. This will give you a QT clip with an alpha channel that you can add to your FCP timeline.
    I sometimes monkey with the size of the Keynote master to match the video size, and bring in still screenshots form the video to put in as a compositional reference (deleting it, of course, when I export the movie). But as you know, you can ultimately adjust the placement of the video in FCP, so it's not always necessary.

  • Cross-fade effect missing from transition effects

    I used to export slide-shows from image folders with QuickTime, and on Tiger and PowerMac PPC G4 that worked fine choosing cross-fade transitions.
    There was also the possibility to export slide-shows with Graphic Converter (using QuickTime effects), and the cross-fade transition was available.
    Now, with Leopard and QuickTime 7.5 the cross-fade (aka dissolve transition) is missing from the transition effects. Is that a bug ? Is there a way to recover that transition effect ? I re-installed QuickTime, but that didn't changed things.
    Thanks for any input...
    N.

    I still have my PowerMac G4 with all things installed, so I checked in QuickTime the slide-show export, and it doesn't have options for transitions in the effects. Oups !
    So I guess it's only related to Graphic Converter 5.9.5 where in the transitions the cross-fade isn't available anymore when I upgraded to Leopard. Maybe I should upgrade Graphic Converter.
    Anyway, thanks for the iPhoto tip, but I can't find where I can change the default settings...

  • More slideshow transition effects

    Fade, horizontal, and vertical are nice but kind of boring.  Are there any plans to have more transition effects in slideshows, like some of the ones in PowerPoint like:
    - Blinds Horizontal
    - Blinds Vertical
    - Box In
    - Box Out
    - Checkerboard Across
    - Checkerboard Down
    Is there anyway to have different ones now through coding?
    Thank you,
    Gary

    Hi Gary
    You can use the available options with slideshows and if you want something specific then you can try to integrate third party sliders.
    Please feel free to add your suggestions in our ideas section.
    Thanks,

  • Transition Effects / Handles

    Im using a Canon XL2 to tape and capture my footage (DV NTSC)..
    Once I'm editing and adding transition effect on FCP 5.1.1 i find that it only lets me put 1sec transitions. If i want to make the transition anywhere longer than 1sec i have to have some sort of "handle" on the clip(s) my question is...Is there any way to have the computer automatiaclly add 1second handles to the start and end of each clip (i use the capture now feature and capture the whole tape then use the DV start/stop detect and make subclips)....i shoot weddings so im dealing with 200plus clips on any given project and it is very time consuming to have to munually add 1sec handles to the start/end of each clip just to be able to use a 2sec video and/or audio transition..thanks for anyhelp anybody can provide, it's greatly appreciated

    dude ... this is what editing is! surely you don't use every frame of every clip you shoot? you look at the clip, you choose your in-point and out-point, whatever comes before the in-point or after the out-point is the handle you have left to play with ...if theres not enough space for a 2 sec dissolve then choose a new outpoint/inpoint or choose a shorter transition
    if you want auto handles then you need to use iMovie, that will do what you want as it is designed for those who dont really "edit".
    cheers

  • A flash of white before animation plays on iPad in Adobe Content Viewer

    Hi Everyone, I'm creating Edge animations and importing the .OAM files into my layout in InDesign CS6 for the Mac, then using the Digital Publishing Suite to publish to iPads.
    On an InDesign page where I have solid color background, the frame where I have the .OAM file placed in always flashes white before it animates. I've colored the background of the Edge file, I've placed a PNG that has that color as a background in Edge, I've colored the background in InDesign, and I've given that graphic box the .OAM is placed in a color. The little spinning wheel I can live with, but the flash of white looks like I did somethign wrong. Is there a workaround?
    Thanks!

    Hi, I haven't implemented this myself yet but came across it in Apple's support documentation, complete page here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5068
    This bit specifically:
    About opening the HTML widget
    Depending on how complicated your HTML Dashboard widget is, your readers may experience a flash during HTML initialization when they open the widget in iBooks. To avoid this flash, modify your Dashboard widget so it tells iBooks when to switch from displaying the Default.png file to displaying the running HTML widget.
    Make these three modifications to add this optional feature:
    Add a IBNotifiesOnReady item set to true in the Dashboard widget's info.plist file, so iBooks knows this Dashboard widget will tell it when to switch to displaying the running HTML widget:
    <key>IBNotifiesOnReady</key>
    <true/>
    Set your Dashboard widget to load the Apple javascript library:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="AppleClasses/AppleWidget.js"> </script>
    Set your Dashboard widget to let iBooks know when the HTML initialization begins, and iBooks can switch from showing the Default.png file to displaying the running HTML widget by calling (in javascript):
    widget.notifyContentIsReady()
    Important: If you choose to modify your Dashboard widget to avoid the flash, be sure to do all three of the above steps. You must compete all of the steps for this to function properly.
    I hope it fixes your problem!

  • Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?

    Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?
    All I can do now is change the skin design and that's it, I can't animate between states like I can with Flash Builder skins. So is there a way to do that, any technique or I have to create a button component from scratch?
    Thanks!

    simplebuttons have upState etc properties you can use to assign movieclips to the 3 states.  you can use the currentFrame property of movieclps to (appear to) smoothly transition from one state to another.

  • Can't create a transition effect in flash cs4

    hey,
    I'm having trouble creating a fade in transition using flash cs4. I've tried to using windows > behaviors but there is not option for screen > transition. Does anyone know the actionscript code for a transition? Or how to put one in. I have 2 frames with a picture on each frame set at 1 frame per second intervals.
    Thanks!,

  • How to delete flash of white

    Hi,
    I have imported a swf file which is only a banner of color
    with buttons, no animation into my dreamweaver html. When the html
    file loads that swf bar shows an instant flash of white and then
    loads the bar. I have been all over the net searching for answers
    which no one seems to have. Here is what I have been told thus far:
    1. Put a preloader in my flash file. This would not make any
    sense as far as I know since the html file is a link from my index
    page. This is not a splash or index file that is loading.
    2. use wmode=transparent. This does not work and neither does
    the opaque mode.
    Everything in my flash file and dreamweaver file is set to
    the dark blue color. There is white no where in the code.
    Can anyone help? I have spent an enormous amount of time
    trying to figure this out to no avail.
    Thank you,
    Cher

    Hi Cher,
    The white you are seeing is possibly coming from the browser
    which generally has a default background color which is white. You
    might try changing this. Just a thought.

  • Third party Flash transition effects

    Can third party transition effects be used in Catalyst?

    The effect code would not be accessible to Catalyst. You can use Flash Profession to animate the item with the effect you want, then import that swf into Flash Catalyst. FC does allow you to play and stop a swf.
    The imported swf should be published with player 10.1 as the target.
    Hope this helps,

  • Is there a Flash to HTML5 converter? Or other options.

    Is there a Flash to HTML5 converter Application for desktop/laptop Macs? I have tried to stay the course of 'no flash' but it can be challenging.
    So a sub question could also be, for those in the Mac community who advocate HTML5, what do you do when you come across a site that requires flash?

    is there a flash player that works on the ipad

    Re: Flash player for Ipad
    Aug 14, 2011 2:22 AM (in response to phaisto)
    Folks, here's the sad truth, according to Engadget:
    "After nearly 4 years of the iOS platform, Adobe is still having difficulty being able to get Flash Player on Apple’s mobile platform. Many sided with Adobe on this one a couple of years ago calling this exclusion unreasonable, but the latest failures for Android Honeycomb to deliver decent Flash performance justifies Apple's decision. Even the Frash hacks bogged down the 1st generation iPad and the PlayBook had problems bring Flash to their Blackberry Tablet."
    Some months ago, before I really researched this issue, I was determined to "get around Steve Jobs obvious hidden personal and business greed agendas" and run Flash on a tablet. So I bought an ASUS Transformer Tablet just to be able to run flash (a $400 "app")! OK, just a wee bit over the top. But, I can now personally testify to the surprisingly disappointing performance of Flash on Android.
    Based on that confirmation, and on numerous reports from those running Flash on jailbroken iPads, either Adobe has lost all of it top notch programmers to Google, Facebook, -- and likely even Apple! -- or it never has been serious about porting Flash to iOS (I suppose this could have been intentional, thinking that the absence of Flash would do serious harm to the platform once folks found out).
    But whatever. I am finally over my Flash of "brilliance" and resigned to just skip over the web sites that require Flash, and wait till I am at my iMac or PC to do those that are really necessary. And, despite that the ASUS Tablet does technically run Flash, it does it so poorly that I preferred to use my Mac or PC.
    I gave the minty new ASUS Tablet which is otherwise a nicely done, but still "work in progress" (unlike my Android phone) to my med school daughter. She loves it -- and now calls me all the time to talk, usually about how to get stuff to work on it (but any excuse to talk to her is good by me ;-).
