Tips for Using Free Premiere Pro Transitions
Using transitions in Premiere Pro can be a lot of fun, but you need to be careful not to overdo it. Before you start, here are our top tips.
1. Pick A Style
There are loads of different style transitions to choose from, so you’ll need to be careful not to mix too many styles. You want the audience to focus on the content, not the transitions, so choose a style and stick to it.
2. Customize Transitions
Just because you have downloaded some excellent transitions, doesn’t mean your work is done. Try adding effects or changing colors and duration to fit your footage.
3. Add Sound Effects
Some transitions work best when accompanied by sound effects. For example, if you are using a glitch transition, try adding a glitch sound to help sell the effect.
4. Build a Library of Transitions
Our list contains over 100+ free Premiere Pro transitions. Why not download them all and build your own library to save time? Once installed, you’ll be able to use them in all your projects. 🙌
