Tips to Using Video Transitions Like a Pro
Choose transitions that match your video style
Use dynamic transitions for energetic, fast-paced videos. Such videos work best as ads and engaging social media content. Other video types require transitions that are more subtle and smooth to create a relaxing, calming feel.
Don’t get carried away
Animated transitions are fun and engaging, but try to resist the temptation to use every one of them in your video. It’s better to choose one or two transition effects that best match your video project and stick to them.
Try a creative approach
Do you want your video to look like the next Pixar animation? Geometric transitions combined with colorful video backgrounds can give your videos a unique look that will wow your audience.
Use the video effects consistently
Make sure that your video doesn’t overwhelm the user with a crazy mix of all possible animation effects. Find animations that have a similar feel and use them consistently across different elements of your video. For example, apply a spin animation to an animated sticker and use the circle transition to glew the videos together.
Sometimes you don’t need any transitions
Sometimes using no transition can make your video even more unique and eye-catching. Try combining several static images into a video clip and remove all transition effects between them. You’ll be amazed at how gripping such a simple video can be!
