Blur-Dissolve – Video Transition
I just saw a video of a wedding and saw a transition that I liked. It was like a dissolve, kind of. Basically it blurred the transition point, so that the out clip went out of focus and then the in clip came into focus from the out clip.
It was like a Blur-Dissolve.
I looked in FCP Effects tab and couldn’t find a transition effect that did what I wanted. Does anyone know how to do this transition. Or is it just throwing the camera in and out of focus during shooting, cause that seems like it would be a pain.
Thank you for your responses.

This guy makes has a plug in called “stibs blur cross”. It does exactly what you’re talking about. Its shareware.

You can download for free the “Stib’s” and the “Telly’s’ plug-ins. They’ve got few different blur-transitions and they works great.

What version of FCP are you using?
Do the stibs and telly’s plug-ins work well with the fxplug in FCP6?

The ones mentioned here work great, also, there’s one in Eureka! called bluracross.

I’ve always thought someone should make a plugin that combines glow and blur as a transition and call it “glur.”

Put Gaussian Blur on both. Set to 0. Using keyframes, ramp up on outgoing and down on incoming- make sure keyframes for max blur are at least half the duration of your dissolve outside your clip. Apply dissolve. Bake in a warm oven for 20 mins at gas mark 5*
