Transitions between scenes are a great way to keep your video interesting and guide your viewers' attention. They help create a smooth flow, adding a professional touch that boosts engagement.

Step-by-Step Guide to Adding Scene Transitions

Step 1: Locate Scene Thumbnails

In AI Studios’ video editor, look for the scene thumbnails at the bottom of the main editing area. Find the scene you want to add a transition to and click the three-dot icon at the top-right corner of the scene thumbnail.

Step 2: Open Transition Options

From the dropdown menu, select "Edit Transition". This will open the animation options for that scene.

Step 3: Choose Your Animation

A menu with available transitions will appear on the left side of the editor. Hover over each one to preview the effect. Once you find the one you like, click on it to apply it to the scene.

You can then adjust the transition's duration to control how fast or slow it plays.

You can click "Apply All Scenes" for the same transition to be used across all scenes if your video.

Step 4: Preview and Save

Once you’ve set up your transitions, click the Preview button in the editor (top-right) to see it in action. If you’re happy with how it looks, exit the animation menu. Your changes will save automatically.

Additional Tips for Smooth Transitions

  • Consistency: Stick to similar transitions across scenes for a cohesive flow.

  • Subtlety: Don't overuse flashy transitions; they should enhance, not distract from, your content.

  • Timing: Make sure the transitions match the pace and mood of your video for a seamless experience.

By following these steps, you can improve your video’s flow, making it feel more polished and engaging for your audience.
