• Fade (fade to black)- One shot fades away to black and the next shot fades in
• Dissolve - One shot fades out as the next shot simultaneously fades in
• Wipe - A shot is literally wiped off the screen by another
• Slow motion - A sequence is slowed down
• Fast motion - A sequence is sped up
• Stop Motion - A series of still shots or drawings are taken with a still camera and mixed into a moving image program to create a digital animation sequence
