About
Fade a video in and out online, free. Add a fade in from black at the start and a fade out at the end, to black or to white, each from a quarter of a second up to ten seconds. It runs in your browser, so the video is not uploaded.
The preview shows the fade as the video plays; Check the start and Check the end jump to each one. With Fade the sound too on, the sound rises and falls with the picture, so the video doesn't start or stop with a jolt.
A fade to black is the classic ending for a film or a vlog; a fade to white feels lighter and works for memories and dreamy edits. To fade only an audio file, use the audio fade tool.
