In the editing tools, you can add smooth fades to the beginning or the end of a clip. For videos and images, you can use fading simultaneously with animated transitions. For audio clips, you can create a smooth cross-fade effect between songs.
Step 1: On the Timeline, select the clip that you want to fade.
Step 2: Click the Clip Properties button on the toolbar. The clip properties will open in the Tools panel.
Step 3: Set the fade length using the sliders on the Video tab.
Fade in – how long in seconds it will take to fade in to full opacity at the beginning of the clip.
Fade out – how long in seconds it will take to fade out from full opacity at the end of the clip.
