Hello,

on many video editors there is a very easy to use transition menu where you can paste a small transition clip between your 2 clips and bam!!! you have a transition between 2 clips,
but on adobe after effects you can't do it like this?
Can you teach me how to create a transition between clips on adobe after effects cc 2015?
I want something like this:

and then between the intro and video itself.

Don't use After Effects for this. Do your transitions in a video editing application. It's a lot easier.

Well, since this is an After Effects forum, and since you're probably on Creative Cloud, you already have Premiere Pro available to you.

Use what you already have!

Please post a timecode of the transition you want to create.

Thank you very much for your reply, I will download adobe premier pro.
When I looked up this question I saw alot of pages with premier pro, so that's why I saw them.

What is a timecode?
I got a solution right now and I'm going to try that.
