Scene Transitions
A transition tells the viewer how two scenes relate. A crossfade says "this continues." A push slide says "next point." A flash cut says "wake up." A blur crossfade says "drift with me." Choose transitions that match what the content is doing emotionally, not just technically.
Energy → Primary Transition
| Energy | Primary | Accent for key moments | Duration | Easing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Calm (wellness, brand story, luxury) | Blur crossfade, focus pull | Light leak, circle iris | 0.5-0.8s | sine.inOut, power1 |
| Medium (corporate, SaaS, explainer) | Push slide, staggered blocks | Squeeze, vertical push | 0.3-0.5s | power2, power3 |
| High (promos, sports, music, launch) | Flash cut, zoom through | Staggered blocks, gravity drop | 0.15-0.3s | power4, expo |
Pick ONE primary (60-70% of scene changes) + 1-2 accents. Never use a different transition for every scene.
Mood → Transition Type
Think about what the transition communicates, not just what it looks like.
