14 TRANSITIONS
3Play’s powerful transitions deliver sophisticated style and state of the art
capabilities to your replay output. They can even include custom graphics
and audio, adding powerful emotional impact.
This section explains the selection and use of appropriate transition effect,
various transition workflows that 3Play offers, and the included graphics
tools enabling you to author custom transitions.

Dynamic transition effects can be used to introduce replay clips with added drama and excitement. 3Play
supports different types of effects (including custom transitions) as well as more than one workflow
capable of effects.
14.1 PLAY LIST TRANSITIONS
Many replay systems provide the ability to play a prepared sequence of clips with transitions between
them for use as highlight reels. As a rule, using transitions in this manner requires you to dedicate not just
one, but two outputs toward achieving transition effects between clips.
3Play’s PLAY LIST module, however, directly supports integrated transition effects, eliminating the need
to dedicate an extra output for this purpose. We’ve covered these tools in depth already (see Section
12.3.7), so we will not belabor the advantages of this workflow here.
14.2 PROGRAM-PREVIEW TRANSITIONS
Of course you might, instead, want to use 3Play’s colorful transitions apart from more elaborate PLAY LIST
preparation. For example, you might want to quickly run replays with dramatic effect specifically tailored
to the sport, team, or play that it will show.
