Merge jump cuts with the Flow transition in Final Cut Pro

The Flow transition seamlessly merges jump cuts to remove pauses or mistakes in on-camera interviews.

In Final Cut Pro, open the Transitions browser, then select the Dissolves category on the left.
Drag the Flow transition to the edit point of a jump cut.
Alternatively, you can select the edit point first, then double-click the Flow transition in the Transitions browser to apply it to the edit point.

Keep the following in mind when using the Flow transition:

Use the Flow transition with the default duration only. Any other duration will generate unexpected results.
The Flow transition duration is always set at 6 frames regardless of the duration set in the Editing pane of Final Cut Pro preferences.
The Flow transition is disabled (treated as a standard dissolve) when you apply it to a generator.
