EXPOSURE BLUR

---

Getting Started in a timeline

1. Dragging the transition over your edit in the timeline, drop it at the end or beginning of a clip, or in between two clips.
2. Modify the Duration 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.

Modify the Transition

• Click the Browse Presets button to see an animated preview of all the presets available. Double-click any preset to apply.
• Exposure: set how bright the transition will get.
• Blur :
  • Click Proportional if you want the horizontal and vertical blur levels to stay together. Then use the Blur slider to set the level for your blur.
  • If you uncheck Proportional, then you can use the Vertical Blur and Horizontal Blur to set each level independently.
  • Zoom Blur sets a blur effect that moves out in Z-space.
• The Dolly slider gives you control to move the camera closer in along the Z-axis toward the transitioning layer.
• The Color Strength slider works with the Tint color picker to allow you to add an overtone of color over your transition.
