Truly amazing, however, this does present some ethical issues.įor some programs, news, legal and documentaries come instantly to mind, it is essential to see exactly where an edit occurs.
The yellow bar indicates the effect is complete.Īs you can see here, the Morph Cut blended frames from elsewhere in the clip to smoothly transition from one clip to the next. The red bar indicates that the effect is being analyzed/created. When that fails, Premiere uses frame blending (dissolving) between frames. NOTE: Where possible, Premiere uses frames from elsewhere in the clip. NOTE: You need to use enough frames to blend smoothly from one shot to the next, but not so long that finding all the necessary frames takes a long time.Īs soon as you apply the transition, Premiere starts analyzing the clip to find frames it can use to smoothly blend from one shot to the next. My experimenting shows that a duration between 12 and 15 frames works well. (The Morph Cut uses the default transition duration you set in Preferences.) Adobe recommends somewhat shorter durations. Putting the morph cut only on one side of an edit (for example, the Out) generates an error message.ĭouble-click the transition icon in the Timeline to adjust the duration of the edit. NOTE: It is important the transition spans both sides of an edit point. The Morph Cut effect is stored in the Dissolve bin.ĭrag the effect to the edit point you want to convert to a morph cut. To apply the morph cut, select the Effects panel and open the Video Transitions bin (folder). Clearly, the speaker “jumped” from one position to another. The left image is the Out and the right image is the In. (See the note toward the end on “Ethical Issues.”)įor example, here are two frames on either side of an edit point. Now, we have another option that seems to make the edit itself disappear.
Traditionally, we would cover a jump with B-roll, a dissolve, or a flash of white. In most cases, jump cuts are considered a symptom of sloppy editing. For example, having the speaker jump from the left side of the frame to the right at the edit point. NOTE: A “jump cut” is an instantaneous, unjustified movement caused by an edit. What this does is blend frames at an edit point to make a jump cut look like more natural movement. One of the truly amazing new features in the 2015 release of Premiere Pro is Morph Cut.
