Looks and transitions

Give one clip or the whole edit a look, and choose how a clip comes in.

Choose Effects on the editor’s left.

Looks

  1. Choose This clip or Every clip at the top. For This clip, pick a video or photo on the timeline.
  2. Pick a look: None, Golden, Film, Faded, Mono or Cool.
  3. Drag Strength to make it subtler or stronger. It applies when you let go.

Every clip gives every video and photo in the edit the same look, which is a quick way to make footage from different places match. None takes the look off.

Transitions

Pick a clip on the timeline, then choose how it comes in from the clip before it: Cut, Fade, Whip, Zoom or Flash. A transition only works where another clip on the same track ends right where this one starts, so close any gap first.

You can choose the same thing from the clip itself: its Clip panel has an In row when there’s a clip right before it. See Change a clip.

Looks and transitions show in the preview and in the exported video. Undo takes back a look or a transition like any other change.
