==== Adding transition effect ====
A transition effect in video editing smoothly bridges the gap between two separate clips. It creates a visual connection, adding flow and style to your video by:
'''*Animating the change:''' using fades,wipes,dissolves, or other visual effects to avoid an abrupt jump between clips.
'''*Enhancing the narrative:''' Emphasizing the passage of time, introducing new scenses, or creating a specific mood
==== How to add transition effect ====

To add a transition effect, first 2 clips need to be placed next to each other without any void space. Double-click between the clips, and a basic wipe transition effect will be added. For another transition, click on the transition effect, which is in between the clips. A dilouge window opens next to the display window or project monitor. (Note: Place can be varied according to the customized workspace.In that dilouge box, there will be an option called wipe method. In that option, you can find different types of transition effects as per your requirements.
