How to Make video go smoothly into background of a certain color
Here you will get step-by-step instructions on how to make your video go smoothly into the background of a certain color. For example, it could be useful at the end of your movie when you want video to go into black screen. Suppose, you have imported all of the necessary files into AVS Video Editor, placed them at the Timeline and added all of the desirable transitions and video effects.
To make it you should do the following:
Step 1: Add Draw Rectangle video effect.
To start adding any video effect you should click the Video Effects button in the Edit Movie menu pane.
-
Find the Draw Rectangle video effect icon in the Media Library and click to highlight it. It is located in the Draw video effects group.
-
To add the selected video effect to the Timeline please use drag-and-drop method: drag the desired track icon from the Media Library to the Timeline. You can also click the Add To Timeline button.
Step 2: Set the boundaries and fade-in and fade-out limits on the Timeline.
First we should set the video effect boundaries. In our example we want our video to start going into the background from the 12th second till the end. So, the boundaries should be set as shown: 
Fade-in is the area where the effect starts being reflected on your video. In the area of maximum representation the effect is applied to 100% capacity. In the Fade-out area the effect is being reduced until it completely disappears.
After you choose the effect you want to apply, the program automatically sets the fade-in and fade-out boundaries. You should change them by clicking the left mouse button and dragging the boundaries inwards or outwards like this: 
Step 3: Choose the effect parameters.
-
Put the Timeline cursor at the position of the effect selection as shown:
Click the Show/Hide Preview button to open the Main Preview window.
After that move the mouse cursor to the right lower corner of a rectangle displayed at the Main Preview. Click it and drag the slider increasing the rectangle so that it will fill the whole screen all over.
You can also use the Effect Parameters tab located right under the Main Preview to set the parameters of this video effect. So far as we want our video to go into black background, there's no need to change color parameter - black is the default color.
Step 4: Preview the result using the Main Preview window.
The Main Preview is intended for previewing the whole project with audio and all of the effects and changes you made. This is exactly what we need!
-
Move the Timeline cursor to the position where you want to start previewing.
-
Click the Play Preview  button.
-
Enjoy!!!
