Fade In

"Fade In" is a technique used in film, video, and photography where an image gradually appears or disappears. When a scene "fades in," it starts from complete darkness or black and slowly becomes visible. Conversely, when it "fades out," the image gradually dims until it disappears into black. This transition is often used to signify the beginning or end of a scene, create mood, or smoothly guide the viewer between different parts of a story. It is a subtle visual tool that enhances storytelling by controlling how scenes emerge or vanish on screen.
