Fade to black

While Video Editor has dozens and dozens of
different transition effects to choose from, the
jump cut with no transition and the crossfade are probably the only two that
are commonly used in Hollywood movies. Another popular technique is to
fade to black at the end of a program or scene.
To fade to black:
1. Place a video clip onto the Va track.
2. Create a black color clip (see page 132) and drag it onto the Vb track,
making sure the start of the color clip overlaps the end of the video clip.
3. From the F/X folder, drag the Crossfade transition effect onto the Fx
track.
4. Adjust the Transition Options dialog box (make sure the transition is
selected as Va to Vb) and click OK. Preview the effect.
