Transitions can be a great tool in film and should not be disregarded as unimportant. They can make your film so much more unique and powerful. This video follows someone who made a film with many great transitions and he gives tips and insight on how he does things. He starts out by saying how great it can be to pull off transition where the two pieces of film aren't similar, he says while hard this can make a whole new experience for the viewer. He also states that transitions should be close to seamless when done in post. Another tip that he gives is to have motion in your transition as it is easy to find and nice to look at. One thing that isn't overlooked is sound design. He says good sound design is so important that it's better to have crappy footage and good sound, it can make the viewer feel certain emotions and can even make them more immersed and involved in the video. He finally ends off by saying that it is very important to treat your transitions and sound as its own art form and to spend a lot of time on it to really perfect it.
This video was really cool. I loved the way they explained transitions and actually showed really interesting examples instead of giving you crappy ones, it really helped visualizing what they were trying to make their point on. I also thought that the video was very well thought out and they touched on a lot of important subjects that can really help peoples film. That being said it was very straight forward. There are also not any downsides I could find in this video. Overall great video.
