Add Fades to Video Online Free
A clip that starts abruptly and cuts to black at the end feels like a screen recording; the same clip with a half-second fade feels edited. FastEdit adds three kinds of fades on the timeline: a fade-in at the start, a fade-out at the end, and mid-fades: a dip to black at any point you drag onto the timeline, which works as a transition between segments or a beat of emphasis. Set each fade's duration precisely, combine with cuts and speed changes, and export. Everything renders locally in your browser.
Features
- Fade-in: bring the video up from black over exactly the duration you choose, down to the tenth of a second.
- Fade-out: end on a smooth dip to black instead of a hard cut.
- Mid-fades: drop a fade-to-black dip anywhere on the timeline: a transition between scenes or a dramatic beat mid-clip.
- Draggable timing: position and stretch mid-fades directly on the timeline like any other region.
- Combine with cuts, trims, speed regions, zoom, blur, text, and logo overlays in one export pass.
- MP4 and WebM output; fades also export into GIFs.
- No upload, no watermark, no account: the video stays on your device.

Add mid-fades where the story needs them
Click the timeline to drop a mid-fade, then drag it into position and stretch its width. Use one between segments as a transition.
