Avid : Silent Woods (Post 10 - Fade To Colour Quick Transition and Credits)

At the ending of the edit, the car drives off into the distance. There is a fade at the end of this clip, however it takes a long time occur and it very jittery, so therefore I thought I would put my own smoother fade at a more appropriate length for my edit. To do this is similar to how I used Dissolve for the sound section. 

I opened the 'Quick Transition Tool and in the Add section I chose 'Fade to Color.' Since this was only to effect the visuals I disabled the sound, A1, A2, A3 and A4, and enabled the video tracks V1 and V2.  I then moved the duration slider slightly more towards the A side of the clip, as this is where I thought would be best. 

I also used this technique, but as a dissolve instead of a fade, between the ending shot of the actors and the ending shot of the car driving off before the credits. 

Then I created credits for the edit, by going back into 'New Title' and typing my name. I chose a similar yellow to the title sequence for the text's colour. Even though there's only me as editor for this I decided to use rolling credits for the purpose of this exercise to show I know how to create them! Once the credits were done I selected the 'Roll' button at the bottom of the window.

I saved the title in the 'Title and Credits' bin and then marked in and out points before splicing in at the end of the timeline.
