Cuts & Transitions

Natural Wipe

Also called Frame Blocking, Invisible Wipe

A foreground object, such as a wall, a person or a passing vehicle, crosses the lens and hides the cut to the next shot.

Seamless scene changes, long-take illusions

Prompt

Replace [scene] with the shot and [duration] with how long it should take, then paste the prompt into your AI agent. Each prompt includes the name of the technique, so next time you can simply ask for it by name.

This is for a motion graphics video. Join two shots in [scene] with a "Natural Wipe" (also called frame blocking or an invisible wipe): a foreground object passes right in front of the lens and the next shot is already there behind it.
Keep the changeover hidden under the object the whole way across, so the object itself seems to wipe the old shot off — unlike a plain wipe there is no drawn edge, and unlike an invisible cut the viewer is meant to see that the scene has changed.
Run the pass over [duration], with the object moving at a steady, natural speed.
