Producing Final Video
Premiere’s filters and motion settings are completely ignored in a standard EDL. Superimposed
clips are described as keys. The only transition permitted under a key is a Cut; other transitions
under keys are removed from the EDL.
Many Premiere transitions correspond closely to wipe patterns that can be produced by a video
switcher, a device that handles transitions in a conventional edit bay. Transitions that do not
correspond to wipe patterns are interpreted as cross-dissolves. The following list describes
Premiere transitions as they are interpreted by each standard EDL transition:
EDL Box Wipe Iris Cross, Iris Diamond, Iris Point, Iris Shapes, Iris Square, Iris Star, Multi-spin,
Spiral Boxes, Swirl, Tumble Away, Zoom, Zoom Boxes, and Zoom Trails.
EDL Circle Wipe Clock Wipe, Iris Round, and Peel Back.
EDL Cross Dissolve Additive Dissolve, Channel Map, Cross Dissolve, Cross Stretch, Cross
Zoom, Curtain, Displace, Dither Dissolve, Fold Up, Funnel, Image Mask, Luminance Map,
Non-Additive Dissolve, Paint Splatter, Random Blocks, Random Invert, Slash Slide, Texturize,
and Three-D.
EDL Cross Split Wipe Center Merge, Center Peel, and Center Split.
EDL Diagonal Wipe Page Peel, Page Turn, and Radial Wipe
EDL Horizontal Wipe Checkerboard, Random Wipe, Wedge Wipe, and Zig-Zag Blocks.
EDL Horizontal Split Wipe Stretch Over and Venetian Blind.
EDL Inset Inset transition.
EDL Vertical Wipe Cube Spin, Pinwheel, Push, Roll Away, Slide, Sliding Boxes, Stretch, Swing In,
Swing Out, and Wipe.
EDL Vertical Split Wipe Band Slide, Band Wipe, Barn Doors, Doors, Sliding Bands, Spin, Spin

Video switchers interpret wipe patterns as codes. You can associate the wipe patterns in the
EDL to the wipe pattern codes used by your post-production facility by clicking Wipe Codes
in the EDL Output dialog box (see “Exporting an EDL” on page 318). Consult with your
post-production facility to determine which wipe codes are used by their switchers.
