CAROUSEL TRANSITION

---

Getting Started in a timeline

1. Drag the transition over your edit in the timeline, placing it at the end, beginning, or between two successive clips.
2. Modify the Duration of the transition either by entering a length in the field, or dragging directly in the timeline.
3. You can choose the Alignment (Center at Cut, Start at Cut, End at Cut, Custom Start) either by positioning the transition in the timeline, or by choosing from the Alignment drop-down in some host applications.

Getting Started in a compositor

1. Apply the transition to the layer you want to transition from.
2. Choose the footage layer you would like to transition to in the Transition B drop-down menu. ( Note for Motion users : drag the footage layer up to the Transition B box).
3. Animate your transition using the Mix slider from 0-100%. Set a keyframe for 0% where the transition should start, then set another at 100% for the end.
