OverviewCineFlare Smooth is a unique collection of 60+ flowing transitions that gently ease your footage in and out, creating polished and modern motion effects. What makes Smooth different is its design as title layers rather than standard transitions. This lets you add beautiful motion between shots without needing to overlap clips on the timeline—perfect for fast, flexible editing inside Final Cut Pro X. Simply drag and drop a Smooth title layer anywhere over your footage, even if the clip isn’t sliced. Each layer affects all clips beneath it, so you can quickly reposition, stack, and combine effects to create your own custom looks. The result is an incredibly intuitive workflow that saves time while giving you powerful creative control over your transitions.

VARIOUS SMOOTH ANIMATIONS
There are 64 various Smooth layer transitions to choose from. The layer transitions range from simple left and right directions, to more complex transitions that involve rotation and zoom. The transition icons are simple and explanatory. Directional arrows indicate the direction the movement will happen, Plus and minus signs indicate zooming in and out. Circles arrows show that the direction will rotate, and the faded double circles mean that when you put these two transitions together, the movement bounces back the direction it came from. Also, choose form one of four varying intensity motion blur layers and add motion blur to your transition!
HOW TO USE CINEFLARE SMOOTH
Each beginning and ending animation that goes together corresponds to a number. Drag a Begin layer transition over the desired clip, then place the same numbered End layer transition right next to the Begin layer. The transitions work together perfectly!
COMBINE TRANSITIONS
You can combine and layer any of these transition layers for hundreds of varying combinations. Maybe instead of continuing the same flow of movement, you’d like the transition to start out as a simple left movement then end in a zoom out? No problem… just make sure you stay consistent with the Begin transition at the front and End transition after that. Feel free to mix and combine the numbers in any way you’d like!
IDENTIFYING THE TRANSITION TYPE
Directional arrows indicate the direction the movement will happen, Plus and minus signs indicate zooming in and out. Circles arrows show that the direction will rotate, and the faded double circles mean that when you put these two transitions together, the movement bounces back the direction it came from.
EASY TO USE IN FCPX
In Final Cut Pro X, navigate to the Titles tab in the upper left corner of the screen. Locate “Cineflare Smooth” and drag and drop a desired Begin and End layer transition over any element on your timeline. Place these wherever you’d like. You can place them over the entire timeline and make everything transition that lies beneath it. You can also place them at the ends of a clip without forcing the clips to trim like any other normal transition does.
