Hi CG Geek.
Really a nice tutorial. It helps a lot for the beginners.
I really need to share this to you.
When you tried to animate the opacity of the strip. You selected the actual clip. If you are using any "effect strips" you can hide your real clip just by pressing"h".
If you really want to animate the opacity, then you can select the effect strip rather than the real clip. It will helps a lot for animation.

Also you can snap your footage to the cursor just by selecting the clip and pressing "shift s". Remember you can snap only the real clip not the "effect strips"

This is a great tutorial- easy to understand. thanks for posting. My son wants to learn animations so I've suggested to him to watch your videos.

Thanks very much for the tutorial man, it is awesome! There's so much info in there that I'll have to watch the video a few more times again to learn it all.

I always like the way you walk through a tutorial, and how you repeat the hot keys that you use. I couldn't change the Cache, in my user preferences, and I didn't get the display where I moved the strip to create the transitions, as you did in the video. I still think that you are pretty good instructor overall, I have definitely learned a lot from watching you.

Thank you for not spending the first 30 minutes explaining framerates like every other VSE tut

missed a few big things like meta strips (think groups or nested sequences) and some of the other nice controls that you get with each strip natively - like you don't have to add an effect for contrast or color balance, it's under the n-panel. So yeah it's super weird, not very convenient, but certainly workable to use blender as a video editor.

ps. always verify your frame rate before bringing in footage; while in blender you can change the fps on the fly, it affects your footage in a weird way when changed

I am making some really cool models with Blender, and I am getting to the point where I am needing to know how to edit CG movies. . . and the best free editing software is built in within Blender itself. I love Blender! : O

Thank you so much! Very useful tutorial

About the last part, did you ever heard of the add-on "VSE transform tool" made by Kgeogeo and I ? It's used to operate in the VSE with the same comand used in the 3D View including scale, grab, rotate (including snap and operation along axis), 2d cursor, keyframe shortcut and selection possible at the VSE preview area.
