How do I make a transition like Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Sorry to all non-8 users, especially David for whom this was created. I should have pointed out that this is a v8 project. There's nothing in it that uses any v8 specific feature but as Edward/Jason say, you can't save in older formats. I removed v7 last weekend believe it or not! (Not that I would have thought to use it anyway).

Shouldn't be too hard to reproduce from the instructions though - and as I said before, it was a quick 'n' dirty suggestion that gets you part way to what you're trying to achieve. I'm sure there's a more elegant way to get where you want to be.

Edward - d'oh! I went to great lengths to tidy up the timeline - never gave the project media a second thought! Sorry. I have saved it below WITHOUT unused media!

EDIT - OK, can't save the same file even with a different filename. I've replaced the original file in the earlier thread .

So as not to alienate everyone here except v8 users I installed v7 on the laptop and recreated the project!

Here it is, roughly looking the same as the v8 project.

Apologies still offered to pre-v7 users!

Thanks for that Ian, that was nice of you.

A pleasure. Hope it gives you something to build upon!
