How to use Transitions from AinTransitions extension

AinTransition for After Effects includes more than 5,500 transition presets. For the convenience of orientation on all transitions, we divided it into 5 packs, focusing either on the principle of implementation or on the type of transitions.

Fout of them, Core, Color, Glitch and Shape Transitions, work on the same principle of operation. In transitions from the indicated packs the transition point from one footage to another is carried out in a place with a marker “ainTR”.  Transitions from the Alpha Transitions pack work on a slightly different principle, since these transitions use the alpha channel and it requires a precompose step with footage (and there should be a bottom slide under the top slide, so that the footage from the top slide is subtracted from the bottom). You can distinguish this type of transitions from all the others by the marker “alpTR”. A clear example of both principles is shown in the image below.

The interface in all transition packs is the same, so below you can find the basic principle of the interface.
