    Hi there smart cows!!

    I’d like to know if there’s a way to make a first play video intro fade out to the main menu without a cut in between..??!

    I have an animated logo as first play which is dipping to white at the end and the background of the main menu is also in tones of white. So, I want my first play intro to smoothly dip to white and reveal the main menu without seeing a black cut in between…see what I mean?

    Can you guys think of a way to do that? I’ll greatly appreciate your help on that matter!!!

    Thanks!!

    Have you considered just using a motion background for your menu setting the loop point after you bring the menu in?
    Of course, you have to do this in AE or some NLE, but it should be pretty easy.

    Simple as that hein?! Actually I thought about that only last night, but now that you confirm that it’s the way to do it I will definitely try it!

    Thanks a lot John!!:)
