I noticed the fade-ins and outs don’t look the same.
Is there any way i can do it?
Here is an example of what i mean:

As you can see at 0:15 you can kinda see the Paramount logo…

Do you mean the fact that the brightest parts of the image are longer visible, while darker parts of the image are already completely black?

This type of fade can be done by continuously reducing the brightness of the image in a “substractive” manner. Not sure if that is the right term, but the idea is that the brightness of each pixels is reduced by the same absolute amount.
(Most fades reduce the brightness in a “multiplicative” way, so all parts of the image reach pure black at the same time.)

You posted this in the Materials category, but it seems more like a VSE question. I’m not too familiar with video editing in blender, but I found two ways to reproduce this kind of fade:

  1. Add a Bright/Contrast modifier.
  2. Keyframing the brightness to go from 0 to -100 will create this kind of fade.

Alternatively you can overlay a completely white with the blend mode Substract. Increasing the opacity of the white image from 0 to 1 should fade the underlaying image in the same manner.

Thanks! Did not have that in mind!
