Transitions

 Different types of Transitions

Fade-in: A fade is a subtype of dissolve transition that gradually moves to or from an image to or from black. Fades are often used at the beginning/end of movies. 

Wipe: A wipe transition is a transition technique used in post-production editing in which one shot replaces another by moving or “wiping” from one side of the frame to another. The wipe transition can be done from any direction and in various shapes.

Slow Motion: this effect is referred to as speed ramping and is a process whereby the capture frame rate of the camera changes over time. Slow motion is used widely in action films for dramatic effect

Long Take: A long take, also known as a "oner," is a shot that's intended to appear as a single, uninterrupted take in the final edit of a project. 

Superimposition: Superimposition is an editing technique and special effect that blends two or more shots (of separately photographed action). It does so on the same film strip in such a way that the images are seen simultaneously.

Ellipsis and Expansion of Time: Ellipsis is the narrative device of omitting a portion of the sequence of events, allowing the reader to fill in the narrative gaps. When expanding time, film events are usually shortened, but sometimes an event that happens quickly deserves to be on the screen longer to emphasize how shocking, interesting, or beautiful it is.

Post Production: the phases of post-production include: editing, video editing, color correction, assembly, sound editing, re-recording, animation and visual effects insertions.

Visual Effects: Visual effects (sometimes abbreviated VFX) is the process by which imagery is created or manipulated outside the context of a live-action shot in filmmaking and video production. The integration of live-action footage and other live-action footage or CGI elements to create realistic imagery is called VFX.
