VSE Transitions

What are the VSE Transitions?

Blender's Video Editor is actually awesome, but there are barely any presets. That is good, otherwise a download of Blender would be several gigabyte. On the other side we have to do now everything our-self. And to make transitions for a clip distracts the workflow making your clip and takes time. Here are some presets, more than 50 transitions. So you can focus on your clip instead of messing up the workflow and just use any of the presets in this package. Actually, I found out it also nice for just a still render.

What is included in VSE Transitions?

More than 50 transitions. Each of them are around 48 frames and in 1920x1080 resolutions. So it's quite a huge download of around 2.3Gb. Each transition is placed in a folder and in the VSE you add them to your timeline.

How to use the VSE Transitions pack?

After downloading the 2.3 Gb .zip file you extract the folder on a place you easily remember. Then in the VSE you can add a strip. Here the steps:

Have a background and a foreground image or video.
Put the foreground on layer 3, the background on layer 2.
Add a transition on layer 2. (Shift+A > Image/Sequence)

Above, you see that the middle layer is the layer with the transition mask.
Select the transition layer, the middle one and in the properties panel you go to tab called Strip. There you set the Blend on Alpha Under. See screenshot below:

At the bottom in the screenshot above, you see Reverse Frames. You will want to use that most of the time. So you can switch that on as well.
Now select the top layer, and in the Properties Panel you click on tab Modifiers.
In the drop down called Add Strip Modifier, you select Mask.
Click in the Text Field behind mask, and select the strip that contains the transition.
Move the timeline to see the effect.

TIP: you can also use masks in Modifiers. When you add a modifier like brightness/contrast you see an option to add a mask layer in there as well. You could use multiple transition layers and decide what it should affect.
