Cool Trick #17 - Use A Preset As A Transition
"Sometimes you want to transition from one clip to another almost invisibly. It's then that a simple cut or subtle dissolve is in order.
But other times you want to have a little fun - to create your own, custom transitions. And with Premiere Elements, there are a number of very cool ways to do this" - Cool Trick 17, Use A Preset As A Transition
"Premiere Elements comes loaded with over 100 transitions, from basic dissolves to pushes, curtains, bars and stripes. And they alone can take you a long way. But for the very cool, there are ways to go beyond the standard, pre-packaged transitions, and create some interesting and custom ways to get from clip to clip."
