USING ADOBE PREMIERE PRO 400 Effects and transitions Horizontal Flip effect The Horizontal Flip effect reverses each frame in a clip from left to right; however, the clip still plays in a forward direction. Horizontal Hold effect (Windows only) The Horizontal Hold effect skews the frames to the left or to the right; the effect is similar to the horizontal hold setting on a television set. Drag the slider to control the clip's slant. Vertical Flip effect The Vertical Flip effect flips a clip upside down. Keyframes cannot be applied to this effect. Vertical Hold effect (Windows only) The Vertical Hold effect scrolls the clip upward; the effect is similar to adjusting the vertical hold on a television set. Keyframes cannot be applied to this effect. Transition effects Block Dissolve effect The Block Dissolve effect makes a clip disappear in random blocks. The width and height of the blocks, in pixels, can be set independently. Original image (left), and with effect applied (center and right) Gradient Wipe effect The Gradient Wipe effect causes pixels in the clip to become transparent based on the luminance values of corresponding pixels in another video track, called the gradient layer. Dark pixels in the gradient layer cause the corresponding pixels to become transparent at a lower Transition Completion value. For example, a simple grayscale gradient layer that goes from black on the left to white on the right causes the underlying clip to be revealed from left to right as Transition Completion increases. For more information about using and creating a Gradient Wipe transition, see the following video by Dennis Radeke. Original image (left), and with effect applied (center and right) The gradient layer can be a still image or a moving image. The gradient layer must be in the same sequence as the clip to which you apply Gradient Wipe. Last updated 1/16/2012
