Using a Checkerboard...

One appealing transition involves starting with the first scene, then rolling through with the second, then the first then the second. It almost looks like a ladder walking across the screen from side to side. These alternating scenes rapidly roll through and eventually slow down, settling on the second scene.

Using Checker Board, you can easily create many varieties of this transition.

Let’s start by taking a look at Checker Board.

Checker Board creates a grid of images, alternating between the two scenes. It flies the board away from the camera, revealing the first scene as a square on the checker board, then dives back into the second scene.

To turn Checker Board into a Rolling Ladder transition:


1. Keep the camera glued to the board so the images fill the frame completely – no flying away.
2. Set how many squares to travel across.
3. Select a start and end square.

To stay glued to the board, turn the Depth control to 0.

Now, decide how big you want the Grid to be. The larger the Grid, the greater the distance to travel from the source to destination panels (so the more frames in between).

Finally, set the start and end positions. This tells Checker Board where on the grid to start and where to end.

For example, to create a simple push that takes the scene from right to left, choose a grid size of 2, and set the start positions at bottom left and right.

This sets the “camera” to pan from left to right, resulting in a transition that pushes from right to left.

Then, to increase the number of frames, increase the Grid count.

You can also experiment with different Start and End positions. Note: once the start and end positions are not in line, you can get diagonal rolls!

Note: Sometimes the transition will create a diagonal roll even when you try to put the Start and End in line. This is because Checker Board has to find the closest Start and End squares to the first and second scenes. If they don’t line up, it borrows a neighbor. So, some experimentation may be required.

Checker Board creates a checkerboard pattern of the first and second scenes, and uses it to fly from one scene to the other.

Comb slices the first scene into strips resembling a comb's teeth, which twirl and peel off the page to reveal the second scene.

Flip flips the first scene away to reveal the second scene on the other side.

Fly Away makes the first scene fly and spin inward until it disappears, revealing the second scene.

Louver Grid turns the first scene into a grid of spinning, window louver-like panels that rotate into the second scene.

Louvers turns the first scene into a stack of window louvers that rotate to reveal the second scene.

Magic Carpet curls the first scene into a magic carpet-like shape that spins as it flies, revealing the second scene.

Page Turn gently turns the first scene as if it were a page in a book or calendar, revealing the second scene.

Pizza Boxes builds a stack of spinning boxes with the sides alternating between the first and second scene. The boxes eventually settle together and combine to create the second scene.

Rotating Frames cuts the first scene into cascading frames that spin on a central axis, then reassembles them to reveal the second scene.

Spiral Bounce slices the first scene into bouncing squares that spiral inward, then outward to re-form as the second scene.

Twist slices, twists, and peels the first scene away to reveal the second scene.
