Comments | | | | I have successfully tried the procedure outlined in the "Gradient Wipe Transition" tutorial using the project files supplied, however when I try to apply what I've learned using my own files, I have no idea why, I get the opposite to what your tutorial shows. I am using photographs as the primary files and the gradient I set up in Photoshop (CS2) for the tutorial. The result I get is what appears as a bright/"burn-in" haze on the leading edge wiping across the frame followed by a solid vertical straight edge trailing behind it revealing the next photograph. In this case I am using FCP 6.0.6 on a MacBookPro. Anybody help. Thanks. | | | | |
