Suitable for 16:9 Projects.

Understanding how it is done is more important than the end product itself.

Lovingly created with TTT.

It can be done with only one mask container.

Following the work of JPD, i made this custum transition some months ago.

Thanks Denis,

As I said once before, this is a technical exercise for me. We gain more by working things out for ourselves than by blindly using the work of others. Hence my statement that "Knowing how it is done is more important than the end result".

A single mask container would work not here, because of the relative motion of the four segments of the Image 1. I invite the user to analyse rather than use the transition.

P.S. It is worth downloading both of these CT's and trying them. They appear on the face of it to achieve the same thing, but on closer inspection they are are not the same. The two methodologies are totally different in concept and wheras Denis's triangular masks operate on a static Image 1, I have made the four segments of Image 1 open much like the original Barn Doors. Look carefully and analyse.
