Hey everybody,

What is the best way to make a camera flash effect between two clip. The first clip is video and the second one is a still picture and I want the picture to appear with a flash effect (as a transition). Anyone who knows how to do this. Thank you in advance!

Cheers Niels

Insert frames of peak white is an old trick and a flashbulb effect in sound.

Perhaps you can use the "Dip to Color Dissolve" transition (found within the Video Transitions > Dissolve folder) and set the color to dissolve to 'white'.

regards,
Erwin
