Change the direction to go from the top to bottom by clicking the transition 
and then clicking the north-to-south triangle in the Effect Controls panel 
(shown here).

Apply the Wipe transition (Wipe bin) between the second and third clips.
Three new options appear: Border Width, Border Color, and Anti-aliasing 
Quality.

Change Border Width to 20.

Click the upper-left direction triangle to change the direction to northwest 
to southeast.
12
Change the border color by clicking the Border Color swatch, and choose white.

Set Anti-aliasing Quality to High. Play the transition. Anti-aliasing adjusts the 
smoothness of the edges of the transition.
14
Select the Iris Round transition in the Iris bin, and apply it at the end of the last 
clip. Notice that when you drop a new transition on top of an old transition, it 
replaces the old transition.
This transition has a new option: a small positioning circle.
15
Select the Reverse option to make the iris closed rather than open.
16
On the End Preview screen, move the End slider to the left a little bit so you can 
see how the transition will look just before it completely closes.

 Note:
You can also 
use the Eyedropper tool 
located next to the color 
swatch to choose a color 
from the video clip.
#
 Note:
You can also 
watch the end position 
in the Program Monitor. 
You need to drag the 
Timeline current-time 
indicator through the 
transition to view it.
