Chroma Key
Combines two sources by replacing all the pixels of the first source
that are the specified color with the corresponding pixels of the
second source. This allows the second source to show through the
first. This appears to put the second clip behind the first clip and
make the selected color transparent.
Explode
The second clip grows from a single point, expanding outward
until it entirely covers the first clip. The center point of the
explosion is defined in the effect parameters.
Gradient Wipe
Uses a matte image to create a transition between two source
images. The transition from the first clip to the second clip occurs
first where the matte image is darkest, last where the matte image
is brightest.
Implode
The first clip shrinks down to a single point, revealing the second
clip. The center point of the implosion is defined in the effect
parameters.
Iris
The first clip opens like an iris to reveal the second clip.
Matrix Wipe
These are a series of matrix reveal type effects that take place
between two sources.
Push
One source image replaces another, both images moving at the
same time. For example, the first clip occupies the entire frame,
then the second clip pushes in from the right while the first clip
slides out to the left.
Unlike the slide effect, both sources are moving. The push effect
executes from the top, right, bottom, or left.
Radial
The first clip sweeps in a radial (or semi-circular) way to reveal the
second clip.
Slide
The second clip slides onto the screen to cover the first clip. The
angle from which the second clip enters the frame is stored in a
parameter, with 0 degrees being the top of the screen.
Wipe
The first clip wipes to reveal the second clip.
Zoom
One clip zooms in or out of the other clip.
Slide
Band Slide
Bands of the first clip slide in parallel directions to reveal the
second clip. You can adjust the number of bands and the slide
direction.
Box Slide
Bands of the first clip slide one at a time in perpendicular directions
to reveal the second clip. You can adjust the number of bands and
the slide direction.
Center Split Slide
Reveals the underlying clip by splitting the current clip down the
center and horizontally sliding the two halves away from each other.
Multi Spin Slide
Boxes of the first clip spin and zoom out to reveal the second clip.
You can adjust the spin about the center of the first clip and the
spin about the center of the box, as well as the number of boxes.
