Page Curl in Adobe Premiere Pro. Making your own transition!

     You can make a page curl in Adobe Premiere Pro easily through effects but what's a little challenging is making your own transition with it by a little key framing.

First, open Adobe and take a look at the effects tab:



Then click on  video effects---> GPU effects-----> Page Curl. Drag the effect to your footage in the timeline. A nice curl will be added to the video but you would like to adjust it:





First is the surface angle which has nothing to do with curvature but it just changes the position of the video in a different dimensional way.  The effect under it, rotates the figure resulted from the above effect. The angle of curl is where you want the curl to be in the video. The amount is how much you want it to be curled.

The first key light changes the light around the curl. The next key light changes the light on the curl. The light distance is the light distance around the curl.This is what is most important about curl.

The challenging part is how to make your own transition out of it.

First, drag a footage into the timeline and use the razor tool in the tools box:



Use the razor to cut the end of the video :



Drag the curl effect into the short last part of the video in the timeline and take a look at the effect control:




First , put the curl amount to 0 and add a key frame at the beginning of the effects timeline. Then go to the end of the small footage part of the video and then increase it to 100.

Your final footage will look normal at the beginning and it will give a nice page curl at the end of it.

Now put all of the footage onto the 2nd video track and add a different piece of footage under it right under where the curvature starts and that way you will have a nice curved transition.


That's how you make a transition out of a curl.
