These are essentially used to change location smoothly. Simply make a quick movement of your smartphone in one direction. Once the movement is complete, stop recording and change location. To continue the transition, start your video in the same direction, then move to your subject. Hop, there's your transition!

You can make this transition by moving up, down, left and right. The important thing is to always start the next shot with the same gesture, otherwise your transition won't be smooth.

Well, while we wait for your results, let's get back to our transitions.
