3. Enter a Border value of 1. Change the color of the border by clicking on the
Color square and selecting a color.

idea to save this customized effect to the Production Library for future use.

2. In the Transition Options dialog box, click Add to send the effect to the
Production Library.
3. Enter a name and a description. Click OK.
Commonly used transitions
While Video Editor has dozens and dozens of different transition effects to choose
from, the jump cut with no transition and the crossfade are probably the only two
that are commonly used in Hollywood movies. Another popular technique is to fade
to black at the end of a program or scene.
To fade to black:
1. Place a video clip onto the Video1 track.
2. Create a black color clip (see “Inserting title, color, and silence clips” on
page 49 ) and drag onto the same Video1 track, making sure the start of the
color clip overlaps the end of the video clip.
3. From the F/X folder, drag the Crossfade transition effect onto the overlapping
region between the clips.
4. Adjust the Transition Options dialog box (make sure the transition is selected
as Forward) and click OK. Preview the effect.
You can also set the starting position by dragging the control point that
appears in the center of the sample image. This option may not be
available for all effects.
