Fade/Wipe Effects

These effects let you make pro-style scene transitions. Use them to spice up the transition from one scene to the next. You can also vary transitions from scene to scene.

IMPORTANT:

Some Fade/Wipe Effects cannot be used with certain modes of Programme AE with special effects ( pg. 38, 39). If an unusable Fade/ Wipe Effect is selected, its indicator blinks or goes out.
