This will render both color and transparency. We need to export in a format that supports transparency, so click on Quicktime for the format as this is a common format that supports it.
In your render queue, click on the output module where it says Lossless. To use this transition elsewhere like in Premiere Pro, we’ll need to export this on an alpha channel. You can rotate it to change the direction of the transition, for example. You can make changes to the transition and save it as a new animation just by editing the preset you’ve created. Then under Effects & Presets, go into Animation Presets, User Presets, and select your newly made transition. Open an empty composition and create a new shape layer. You can leave it in this default folder or create a new folder to better sort your animations. To save this as a preset animation to use later, select the three groups, click on Animation, then click on Save Preset. The new shapes should be on top, so just make sure that the animations for the top ones happen after the original ones. Let’s add a third shape, using the same process. Now we have a cool two-shape transition, and it looks dynamic and interesting since the animations for both are not linear. Click on the upper one, which will select both keyframes for that shape, then just offset them from the first shape so that they happen shortly after the other layer. You can press the U key to show only the position properties within a layer, so press that and we’ll see both position properties. Change the color to something different than the first group. Select your first group and hit Ctrl + D to duplicate the layer.
So that’s a basic shape transition, but most transitions of this type feature multiple shapes. For example if we drag the first node up and to the left we will get a really fast start to the animation, and a slow ending. Play around with this to get the exact animation that you want.
This will let us change the curve of the animation. Now open the graph editor by clicking on the graph editor button. Now when you play it back, you should have a smooth animation of the shape going left-to-right across the screen. Move the playhead to the start of the timeline, and move the shape offscreen on the left. When we use Easy Ease on a keyframe, any new keyframes that occur before it will have the effect automatically applied, which is why we start with the end of the animation.
