Transition keys
Cut
This key will change any existing transition to a simple cut at the Timeline edit point under the
playhead. It will not add a new cut at the playhead position. To do this use the Split Clip (Command-\)
function instead.
DIS (Dissolve)
This key will add a one second dissolve centered between the two shots at the Timeline edit point
under the playhead. If there is another transition already present there, it will replace it.
SMTH CUT (Smooth Cut)
This key will add a Smooth Cut transition centered between the two shots at the Timeline edit point
under the playhead. If there is another transition already present there, it will replace it.
Smooth Cuts are special-purpose transitions designed to make short jump cuts in the middle of a clip
unnoticeable. This is done by using optical flow processing to match the same features on either side
of a cut in order to automatically morph a subject from one position to another over the duration of the
transition.
The Smooth Cut effect works best on clips such as sit-down interviews and close-up head shots with a
minimum of background and subject motion, and where the subject’s position on either side of the cut
is not significantly different. A good example of when Smooth Cut is effective is when you’re cutting
pauses, partial repeats, filler sounds such as “um” or “you know,” or other speech disfluencies out of
an interview clip to tighten the dialog, and you want to eliminate the little “jump” that occurs at the cut
without having to cut away to B-roll. Applying a short two or four frame Smooth Cut transition to the
edit can make this kind of edit invisible, as long as the speaker doesn’t change position significantly
during the cut. The more motion there is in the background of the shot, and the more the speaker
changes position, the harder it will be to get a useful result using Smooth Cut. Although the default
duration for any transition is one second, you’ll find that Smooth Cut transitions may work much better
when they’re short; 2- to 6-frame Smooth Cut transitions often work best to disguise jump cuts.
TRANS DUR (Transition Duration)
Holding down this key when a transition is under the playhead will allow you to change the duration of
the transition using the Search dial. Turning the dial left will shorten the transition, and right will
lengthen it. Once the duration is correct, release the key.
