Re: Transition Questions...
by Paolo Ciccone on Mar 21, 2008 at 4:15:19 pm

Perry, if you think how transitions are done in the film world you'll be able to visualize the process. If you need a crossfade with two pieces of film adjust the printing light in order to gradually underexpose the "out clip" and increasingly expose the "in clip" while printing on the same piece of film. Using digital doesn't change this basic fact of physics. You need handles for each clip. If you need to fade to black you need enough "exit frames" to be gradually blacked out. If they are not there then only solution is to duplicate the last frame, hardly a satisfying solution.
Actually Premiere is handling this more graciously than FCP by duplicating the frames, FCP flat out refuses to do it. Regardless, if there is no enough material there is no way you can create the transition. When acquiring the material be sure that you have 2-3 seconds of handles at the beginning and end.
