Which option is NOT listed as a common video transition in the material?

• A. Wipe
• B. Cross Dissolve
• C. Dip to Color
• D. Fade to Black

Answer: (A)

Understanding common video transitions means recognizing the ones editors most often rely on in standard workflows. In the material you’re studying, the transitions listed are Cross Dissolve, Dip to Color, and Fade to Black. These provide smooth, widely accepted ways to move from one clip to the next.

The wipe transition is more stylistic and era-specific; it moves a sweeping edge across the screen to reveal the next clip, which can feel dated or be used for a deliberate retro effect. Because the material focuses on the standard, broadly applicable options, the wipe isn’t included among the common transitions. That’s why this option is the one not listed.

So, Cross Dissolve blends the shots, Dip to Color transitions through a color interlude, and Fade to Black gradually ends or begins a sequence; Wipe isn’t part of that common set in the material.
