Key content from the use case video
The smoke transition is a fun transition from the specialised case transition categories to use when you want a bubbly and lively transition. Due to its fun-like way of creating a transition, the smoke transition lends itself for use in more fun projects such as children’s birthday parties or comedy sketches.
Starting off with a shot of kids at a birthday party, we can apply the smoke transition to bring in a related fun action clip for a really lively way to share a birthday experience. Videos with this sort of transition are great for social media sharing on platforms like Facebook and Instagram.
So when you want a fun feel to your video, the smoke transition adds an element of fun in a casual but effective way and lets you stitch together several clips for a quick and easy to share video.
Always endeavour to stick to just one or two variations of the smoke transition in any project or you will run the risk of distracting the viewer if you try and use every single variation in the same project.
