Weird Cross Dissolve From Video to Image Causes Video to Fade Left!!

Hello.
Since the snippet of video was not long enough I had to extend time by creating a still frame. That part worked great. No issues.
However once I added the cross dissolve going from the video to the image and then again from the image ot the next video  snippet -- it fadically shifts the frame of the video going left as it fades.
At roughly 2:26 of this flv video. www.lockwoodarc.org/mwhittmore/LARC_Alaska.flv
Where you see the rear of the jeep and the tag line "Adios Alaska".
It's my first ever video edit so don't laugh.  It's the best I could do given all the garage I hd to work with.
Any other suggestions are appreciated too.
Marc

What I do is extend my 2nd and 3rd track clips beyond the cut point, then disable the right side of the cut on tracks 2 and 3.
I then line up the dissolve across the three tracks. This works great, especially if I want to maintain the continuity of the disabled tracks for later use.
I use different methods depending on how much work I want to do, what I have available in front of me and any other effects at that particular point in time.

    I have cross dissolve transitions set between images and videos, and I have the pan/zoom hold setting at "0." Despite the "0" setting, my images are static until the cross dissolve is complete. I want the pan/zoom feature to start the moment the subsequent image becomes visible. Is there a solution?

    I am not sure if I am zeroing in on what you seek so please clarify...on
    I want the pan/zoom feature to start the moment the subsequent image becomes visible.
    Do you mean fading in visible versus or completely visible at the end of the transition? Whatever the case, I have not
    found a scenario to fit what you are describing.
    However, here are my suggestions for you to consider...
    1. What is the alignment of the Cross Dissolve transition - Left Clip, Between Clips, or Right Clip. If Between Clips, please try Left Clip alignment.
    2. What is the duration of the Cross Dissolve transition - you could try varying the transition duration. If less than 1 second, then please read the
    details for minimum transition duration in the following
    http://atr935.blogspot.com/2014/03/pe-minimum-duration-for-transition.html
    Please let me know if any of the above worked for you in what you were seeking regarding pan and zoom effect and video transitions.
    Thank you.

  • Creating cross-dissolve from still photo to video

    Hello all ...
    I'm try to create a simple cross-dissolve between a black-and-white photo (imported into FCE as an RGB Photoshop file) and a color (1440x1080) video clip. My problem is that FCE will only insert the dissolve on the right (video) side of the edit, the result being that the photo abruptly goes to black, followed by a gradual fading-in of the video. This is not the effect I want – I'm hoping to create a smoother transition between the two. I suspect that I haven't saved the still photo in the correct format, but I can't seem to find any help in my various FCE books.
    So: How do I apply the transition to both sides of the edit? Is it even possible?
    Thanks in advance for any and all advice.
    Alec

    Tom, I figured it out. The audio for the video clip was overlapping the edit (i.e. it extended to the left, so that the video clip's audio ran under the still pic). When I got rid of the (easily replaced) audio, the regular cross-dissolve worked.
    Now I just need to figure out how to make the transition last longer than 13 frames!
    Thanks for your prompt responses ... I really appreciate it.
    Merry Christmas!

  • Cross-dissolve from white frame to adjustment layer no longer works in CC 2014

    Windows 7, Premiere Pro CC 2014
    I have a video clip in a nested sequence on V1 and an adjustment layer on V2.
    I want to dissolve from a white frame to the clip using the adjustment layer.
    In PP CC (not 2014) this was simple:
    Starting with a white PNG graphic on V2, cross-dissolve to the adjustment layer.
    However, in PP CC 2014, this causes a dissolve to BLACK over the duration of the dissolve and then a CUT to the video.
    This behavior in CC 2014 is illogical. Why has it changed?
    There are other ways to do this, but this one was quick and easy, and is required for hundreds of clips in existing sequences / projects.
    Response from support via live chat:
    thank you for your patience
    the adjustment is layer is not functioning properly
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en
    please mention it in the feature/bug request form

    For me with a color matte it shows exactly the same behavior as with a PNG.
    You're dissolving between the matte and the adjustment layer on V2?

  • Cross Dissolved Motioned Slideshow Image "Jumpy"

    I am working on a slideshow, and as I've done in the past, followed Tom Wolsky's Motion Control suggestions. ( http://www.fcpbook.com/MotionControl_inFCE.html ) The motion on the pictures looks great - except during the cross dissolve transitions. The image becomes "jumpy," kinda like when you import VHS video. The filters I've tried are: De-interlace, Flicker Filter and Stop Motion Blur, and they didn't help.
    The photos are scanned jpg images at 400dpi. If I remove the motion, the pictures look fine with the cross dissolve transition.
    I have exported the video and using iDVD made a movie, hoping it just looked that way on my monitor. Still jumpy on my sweet standard definition TV.
    Render Control framerate and resolution are at full 100%. And this is just a standard definition sequence.
    I need this for a wedding for a friend for next Saturday, so I'm sweating here a little. Slideshows like this have always worked for me in the past. Am I missing something?
    Dave

    David - They are all checked, and then running the render again doesn't render anything new.
    Searching around Google, I found this "solution" which appears to work. It's tedious, and I'm having trouble believing that everyone else can add motion and transitions, and it works fine. Or do other people really have to do this when keyframing:
    (excerpt from http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/8/967086#967094)
    +If you re-position graphics or any video image in FCP, make SURE the VERTICAL setting for each KEY-FRAME (start, stop or hold) is always a EVEN INTEGER (Even Whole Number). Examples: 4, not 3 / -144, not -143.27 / 336, not 335.62 / 12 not 11.+
    +The positioning settings/info (as well as many other settings) are found under the "Motion" tab in the Viewer.+
    +Vertical position is the number in the RIGHT window in the area called "Center" (the horizontal position is displayed in the LEFT window).+

  • Dissolve from One Image to Another

    I followed this tutorial:
    http://flashexplained.com/banners/creating-a-flash-ad-banner-from-start-to-finish/
    To create the banner ad at the bottom of the page. I've able
    to do everyting except dissolve from the earth image to the flash
    logo. I downloaded their sample file, and it looks like the flash
    logo is a movie clip, on which he used a mask layer to create the
    dissolve effect.
    I don't know much about masking and haven't been able to
    replicate the dissolve. Can anyone help me out?

    Hi there,
    If you put the logo on top of the earth I wonder if you
    really need to use a mask (a mask is the part that it shows of the
    layer underneath). Just a simple motion tween with changing the
    alpha could be enough.
    Try not to use the mask and see how it looks. After that you
    can try putting a layer on top of the logo, change it to a mask and
    put the shape that you want to show in the mask layer. After that
    look at the movie again.

  • Cross Dissolve problem

    Hi,
    What are the correct settings for a fluent cross-dissolve from one clip to another?
    I am using version 12 of Premiere Elements and the standard length of my is 1 second (50 frames). However the result is that I still can see the faded out video 'stop' (instead of fading completely) and the new video seems to pause before it's fading in.
    Obviously I want it just going smoothly from one clip to another.
    Seems to me like a basic setting to any video editing software, but I cannot seem to fix this.
    Thanx for your responses.
    Best regards,
    Ronald

    Using some freeware, I have also some info about my original video file format. Maybe that helps to determine what settings I should put in Premiere. And looking back now at my video, I guess I described my problem wrongly. Looking closer at the transition, it's not really like previous clip has not fully disappeared, it does fully disappear, but ends with a few frames of still image, like the next clip starts with a few frames of still image....

  • 15 frame or 1/2 second cross dissolve

    I want to cut the duration of my cross dissolves from 30 frames to 15 frames. I highlight the length of the cross dissolve video transition and make the change, but after I leave the duration box it reverts back to 30 frames or one second.
    Is there anyway to edit the duration of the cross dissolve?
    Thanks.

    Are you up early or late Down Under?
    Probably up later!!

  • Audio in Clip1 continues across Clip 2 (no sound) during a Cross Dissolve

    Hi,
    Just got a new Intel Mac Pro with heaps of RAM & HDD's to use for my part time wedding video production business.
    I have a problem in iMovie 06, which I just can't find a solution for.
    When I place a cross dissolve between say clip 1 & clip 2 the audio from clip 1 continues across the full cross dissolve with NO audio in the cross dissolve from clip 2. It is only when the playhead cross over the cross dissolve to clip 2 that clip 2 sound can be heard!
    This is VERY annoying when clip 1 has quite audio & clip 2 is nosiey - I get a instant increase in volume when the playhead goes from the back of the cross dissolve to clip 2!
    Can anyone help!
    Thanks,
    Trav

    Try selecting Show Clip Volume Levels in the View menu. Then select the transition and expand your time line as far as it can go to view the transition. You will see that the transition has a volume line running horizontally through it, just like any other clip, that lets you adjust the volume by dragging the line up or down. It sounds to me like your transition has the volume line pulled all the way to the bottom, muting all sound in the transition. Adjust the volume line upward in the transition. If I am correct, the sound from Clip 1 and Clip 2 should be blended into a smooth transition. Worth a try, anyway.

  • Dissolve that applies to audio and video

    How do I drag a dissolve that will apply to video as well as audio rather than having to drag a dissolve onto audio then a separate one onto the audio tracks? Sorry - SO basic!
    E

    Hi -
    Hold the command key down and mouse click on the transition points of the video and audio:
    !http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/AddDissolve1.jpg!
    Once highlighted, control click on any of the selected cut points and select Add Transition "Cross Dissolve" from the drop down menu.
    !http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/AddDissolve2.jpg!
    That will add dissolves to all the selected cut points:

  • Problem with cross dissolve transitions

    I had several short interview clips that I had made into several short Imovies. I wanted to combine the interviews into one longer movie. Each short clip has an intro clip.
    The problem occurs when I copy each short clip and paste into the long version. The beginning and end of each clip is clipped somewhat. I think this might be because it's making a new cross dissolve from an existing cross dissolve?
    When I remove everything but the interview clip from the short movies then paste into the longer version this problem doesn't happen. Any idea why this might be happening?

    If you made the short clips by export the movie with the intro there is probably no extra media available to make the overlap for the transition. Check the preferences for doing the transition if it's set to all or half. That might help you, but it may just not be possible.

  • Cross dissolving in Final Cut Pro 10.0.8

    Hi there, seriously struggling with cross dissolving in Final Cut Pro 10.0.8.
    The problem is simple: I don't know how to do it, and I can't find the option to do it. Right clicking doesn't give me the option to 'Add Cross Dissolve'. I eventually found it by clicking 'Lift From Storyline'  and then clicking 'Add Cross Dissolve' but I can't navigate it at all...I'm trying to cross dissolve from one clip to another without it fading to black in between. Can someone help me, or point me in the direction of a tutorial? I've been looking for ages now and not found one that I can use!
    This is how it looks at the moment...The clip on the left fades to black and then the next clip starts really suddenly, neither of which I want to happen, but this is the closest I've got after hours of trying to make sense of it!

    Lift From Storyline is not what you want, as you've found.
    Command-T
    Highilght the In or the Out point of a clip, the default transition (Cross Desolve) is applied to that edit point.
    Hiighlight a whole clip, or series of clips together, the default transition is applied to all In and Out points for all selected clips.
    In the Transition Browser, right-click a cilp and select "Make Default Transition" to change which is the default.

    You can also drag-and-drop from the Transition Browser, or highilght an In or Out point, or a single or series of clips, and double-click a transition in the browser.

  • How to change cross dissolve alignment in PP CC 2014??

    I've updated to Premiere Pro CC 2014 and now I can't change the alignment on my cross dissolve from the effect controls panel - or anywhere else for that matter. Is that function gone in 2014?? Or did I miss something?
    Screendump from the effect controls panel:

    I dont understand this part ( what am I missing?)
    'm looking to keep the length of the dissolve and skip ahead or rewind with each clip
    but ...
    This method only changes the length of the dissolve one end at a time
    Dragging the Transition Box in the Timeline works like this.
    Drag one end and the total duration extends or contracts.
    Shift Drag either end... affects that end only.
    Drag in the middle of the box ..repositions (off centres) the transition (Assymetrical).
    All adjustments are shown in a Info Box overlay.

    EDLS's are designed for linear online suites. Linear online suites cannot do a dissolve from the same source reel without laying off one of the shots to another tape or using something called preread. I imagine this is the source of the problem.

  • Gradient effect / Cross Dissolve

    I have been using the "vignette effect" to create full frame gradients - is there an easier way? Not being able to separate the monitor window from the main workspace - I find myself running out of monitor real-estate very quickly.
    Like everyone in this forum - SG has great potential but the user interface is so "Un-Adobe"! SG need to fall in line with AE & PR in regards to functionality. Not being able to customize the workspace is a major problem on my end!
    One more thing - a simple cross dissolve tool that works on a grading layer is a must. At the moment I'm using three layers to mimic a simple cross dissolve from PR.
    • top layer - first grading layer
    • middle - linear dissolve layer,
    • bottom layer - second grading layer.
    This is working fine but again, I'm running into monitor real-estate issues. Is there a better way?
    Cheers,

    GOTTA have overlap...that is what handles are...
    #1 Transitions "Insufficient Content"
    Shane's Stock Answer #1: Trying to add a Transition and get the error "Insufficient Content"
    A full 1 second cross fade reaches 15 frames into each clip. So, if you want to change a cut to a cross fade, there has to be at least 15 additional frames of each clip. Say you're trying to cross fade from one clip into the very first frame of a second clip. FCP cannot 'create' 15 more frames of the second clip to do a cross fade. If they're not there, you're out of luck.
    What you are running into is that you are marking an out point at the far edges of a clip then adding a cross dissolve, say 30 frames (one second) in duration. Since the dissolve is centered on the cut, it will start 15 frames before the cut, and try to go 15 frames AFTER the cut...which it can't do. What you need to do is plan how long your dissolve will be and back-time your cut so that it works.
    You need to make sure that your clips have enough media (called 'handles') at the beginning of the incoming clip and at the end of the outgoing clip for the transition. For example, if you have a 1 second (30 frame) dissolve, your in and out point need to be at least 15 frames from the edge of the clip.

Maybe you are looking for
