Wipe Transitions
A Wipe is a gradual transition where one video signal is
replaced with another according to a wipe pattern. In the
example below, a line wipe is being used.
Figure 21: Wipe Transition
Figure 22: Wipe Transition
For Key transitions, the key is wiped on or off-air with
the transition and the background remains untouched.
The duration of a wipe transition depends on either the
transition rate for the ME, or the rate at which the fader
is moved.
