Video Transitions? ✂
This post-production technique can be a creative way improve your videos, enhancing and complementing the story.
What is it?
Transitions are a post-production technique used in film or video editing to connect one shot to another.
Most commonly this is through a normal cut to the next shot.
Most films will also include a selective use of special transitions, usually to convey a tone or mood, suggest the passage of time, or separate parts of the story. Think about dissolves, fades, match cuts, and wipes.

In this way some videos simply became a collection of fancy transitions. The technique not serving the story anymore.
