Step Eight:
So we've got a bunch of video clips, and we've added our final photos, logo slides, and
model's name slide, but the transition between each is still an abrupt cut from one to the
next. Let's add a little polish by putting a smooth blend (called a “Cross Fade” transition)
between the clips. Click on the Go to First Frame icon to move your playhead to the be-
ginning of your movie, then click on the Transition icon at the top of the timeline to bring
up the transition options. Click on Cross Fade and then choose a short duration (like 0.75
of a second). Click-and-hold right on the little Cross Fade icon, and then drag-and-drop it
right over the spot where the first and second clips meet in the timeline. With your play-
head back at the beginning of the movie, click the Play icon to see how much better this
looks. Ahh, that's better!
