I can't figure out how to make a certain transition for my video. I really want a transition that looke like the sun just passed in front of the camera. I have another video editing program that can do that, but it sucks and won't take my video because it only takes freaky video dimensions.
Anyway, I wanted to know if there were any places I could download free effects for Premiere.

1. What is the other program?
2. Define "freaky video dimensions."

The effect you're looking for is called a lens flare. They're pretty tacky if not done right, and the Premiere base ones are not done right. Still, if it's what you want, go to your effects bar and select "Lens Flare" from under the "Render" heading.
If you want really super cool natural looking lights, you'll need a set of After Effects plugins called "Knoll's Light Factory" which is put out by everyone's favorite prices-for-pros company Pinnacle Systems. Light Factory is pretty spectacular with its lighting effects, and they blend in with animation way better than premiere's white ball with a halo.
Anyways, to transition your video using a lens flare, keyframe it to one corner of the video and make it really big. as it goes across the screen and shrinks, fade into your other clip. Presto Flare-o. Now I'm off to bed before Pixy Misa comes after me for ripping off her wow super engrish and takes out another hard drive...
