Slices

The frame is sliced into bands that shoot in from alternate sides, each with an accent edge, then shoot out the far side to reveal the next shot.

Render it

npx volito render transitions/slices --out slices.mov

That writes ProRes 4444 with alpha, ready to drop over footage. The same item in another shape, brand or format:

volito render transitions/slices --aspect 9:16 --style cobalt --out slices-9x16.mov
volito render transitions/slices --format mp4 --out slices.mp4
volito still transitions/slices --t 0.26 --out slices.png
volito info transitions/slices     # every prop and part
volito add transitions/slices      # copy its source into ./motion to edit

From Node:

import { findItem, renderVideo } from "volito";

await renderVideo(findItem("transitions/slices"), { props: {}, out: "slices.mov" });

Or ask an agent with the MCP server connected: “Render the Volito slices (transitions/slices) in 9:16, in our brand.”

Props

Set each with --prop name=value, or all at once with --props and a JSON object.

Parts

Each part takes any move, ease or idle: --motion cover.in=pop.

More in Transitions

Iris

A camera iris: the frame closes down to a point through a ring of the accent, then opens on the next shot. Circle, diamond, star or square, from any point.

Blinds

Venetian blinds: slats swing shut one after another in alternating colours, then open on the next shot.

Doors

Two doors slide shut and a Bauhaus disc locks them, then they slide open on the next shot. Across on wide frames, top and bottom on tall ones.

Glitch

A digital glitch: torn slices and RGB-split blocks flicker in, the frame breaks fully at the cut, then glitches out to the next shot.

Ink bleed

Ink spreads from a point in wobbly blooms of the accents until it floods the frame, then a hole blooms open on the next shot.

Clock wipe

A clock-hand sweep: the next colour wipes round the frame like a second hand with an accent edge, then sweeps on round to reveal the next shot.
