Some examples, 'copy&paste' lasers and B grade style lightning bolts. they should give this packages with the normal version from magix, not the pro version.

Name a few of the transitions i sum up above that are in it! Nope, instead, we get get a pro video editor with some 3rd party plugins where some of it are good, very good, like prodad mercalli, but the most are just junk that you never use. Yeah i know you probably can make them, but that's just my point, i don't have time for that, i want them IN the program, or i want at least buy them somewhere and use them in Video pro X. With modern transition i don't mean big transitions with a lot of tralala.but actually simple transitions that are widely used now in Aftermovies, dancemovies, you name it.Įxamples, look for: whip transitions, zoom transitions, fast camera pan transitions, spin transitions, whip ramp transitions, speedramp transitions, combinations of this transitions, i can go on and on. Some examples, and then i only talk about the transition part. Ok, i know that.what i mean is that i'm missing a lot of stuff that actually could easy be in it as 'Presets' for a modern so called 'Pro' editor. Hi guys, ok where do i begin.'there is no plugin that automatically creates an odd-shaped mask and then automatically figures out what type of effect that I want that depends on the material that I'm using.' Of course there are exceptions to the above eg stop motion can be used to great effect in sports action videos so long as, IMHO, it is not overdone - eg I tried Finn's method of creating the Zoom transition and found if you get the timings wrong, ie too long, the effect is disorientating.

I avoid third party plug-ins as much as possible.

with respect to item 2 I also do not show image sequences rapidly preferring to use collages to combine images together in a way that the viewer has time to see each one yet the total run time is less than if you sequenced the images and left enough time for them to be viewed properly.

avoid adding effects just for the sake of it - if they do not add to the story I am telling, I will not use them.

avoid any sort of effect that can leave a viewer disorientated or uncomfortable eg the spinning whizzy effects, fast sequences - modern transitions?.

use only transitions that add to the story, eg if the video has distinct sections I will use a through black, or occasionally a page turn, to indicate the end/start of a new section, within a section I use mainly crossfades and cuts.

Hmmm - I wonder if my Mask Generator tutorial is an option here with a suitable video source to create the mask John CB I too am puzzled by what you mean by 'modern' transition - see below. there is no plugin that automatically creates an odd-shaped mask.

Thanks for that - I dislike pre-empting another users hard work an effort.
