Adding Transitions

An iMovie wouldn't be complete without adding transitions to your work of art. Transitions are used to make two movie clips or images blend together. For example, you can create a transition between two clips that fade to black and then back again. Transitions help create a visual separation between two movie clips. You can also use transitions between still images in an animated slideshow. Transitions include such effects as: Fade In, Fade Out, Circle Opening, and Circle Closing. Experiment with different transitions to see which ones work the best.
