Transitions

Transitions.
A transition is used in media as something that connects scene to scene. They can be used to signal changes in a story, time, location, point of view of character, mood, tone, emotion and pace. They make the narrative flow as a story. There are many transitions but the most popular ones used are cut (from shot to shot), wipe, flashbacks or scene (black scene to picture). Here are a few more common transitions:
