Narrator: Let's review how to add a transition
to a clip, specifically using some shortcuts
and quicker methods of adding
your default transitions like a cross-dissolve.
A quick way to add a cross-dissolve
is just by right clicking
and saying apply default transition.
The default transition that we have set for Premier Pro
which can be changed in the Preferences
is the cross dissolve and so if I do that,
it adds the cross dissolve to this clip.
If I go in here and zoom into the timeline
you'll notice that the cross dissolve starts
right here before this clip starts,
before this video clip starts.
I don't want it to start before that clip,
I want it to start right when that clip is starting
so there's no jump cut that you'll see behind the dissolve.
Man: We talked about this disease-
So there's a dissolve.
Then I'm going to add the same dissolve to the white matte
and all the social media screenshots.
A quick way to do it, and an even quicker way to do that,
is by selecting the edge of the clip
that you want to add the transition to
and pressing Command D on your keyboard
or Control D if you're on a PC.
Let me just play through this, show you want happens.
Man: what I did, first day I got 100,000 views
Now they dissolve on which is kind of a cool effect.
The problem is that you see this cut right there.
See that cut right there?
I want to extend this white over to the left
so that the white comes on
and this screenshot starts to come on
and the white finishes coming on all the way
before that cut to the next shot so we don't see any of it.
Man: So that's what I did, first day I got 100,000 views
Narrator: Looks pretty good, huh?
Looks a lot better than before.
We can do a cross dissolve between two clips.
So these two pictures, maybe we wanna add a cross dissolve
between those so I can select that point in between
and press, again, Command D.
That's how you add a cross dissolve very quickly
in Adobe Premier Pro.
Have fun with your transitions and feel free to continue
working with some different transitions on your own
and we'll see you in the next lesson
where we begin to learn about Audio Transitions.
