Camera Transitions

 Hello bloggers! Today I’ve learnt the many ways to create and edit camera transitions! I hope you all enjoy these, as I’ve spent some time on these! 

 For my first transition, I created a Fade which gradually cuts to darkness to introduce another shot. The process of how I made and edited this video was to be honest pretty simple and not hard whatsoever! I first recorded my dog lying on the bed then as the fade transition appeared I zoomed in on my dog to get a closer look. I chose to use the user-friendly app iMovie to edit this transition, providing a more whimsical approach in my humble opinion.

For my second transition, I created whats known as a Wipe that is a technique where the screen smoothly wipes from one shot to another! The process began with me moving the camera around my living room and as the wipe took place, I used another video to introduce a new location my kitchen. I relied on the editing software iMovie.

For my third and final transition, I developed an Invisible Cut, a transition that seems like one shot but actually it's cut between two videos! Creating this video was especially special compared to the wipe and fade. Personally, it gave me more opportunities to film at different locations making it more enjoyable for me and the reader! I first recorded the video underneath my living room couch to make this transition that way the camera will gradually go up to my second shot which actually appears to be in a different location a bedroom! I again relied on the editing software iMovie for this transition, assisting me in cutting the two videos into one.

Thank you bloggers for taking your time to look at my transitions!
