  • Is there a “TV Channel Change” effect or plug in for avid?

    Long time FCP editor doing my first job on Avid and I need a transition to mimic changing channels and before you post, I already tried the “TV noise” effect, I need something different.

    Thanks

    GenArts Sapphire has such an effect… not cheap, but it’s a toolkit any effects driven editor should have.

    There’s a Damaged TV effect in BCC (that ships with Avid) that you can use as a transition.

    Years ago, I created my own using a combination of Add Edits, Top to Bottom pushes and some other effects to mess up the footage. I used it on an episode of Mega Engineering.

    A precursor to the effect I created can be found at the beginning of my (now somewhat ancient and in need of a serious update) demo reel from 2006. kentonvannatten.com
