Iris
Result
Transition
These effects are similar, but have different shapes. They all create
the impression of an iris, which contains the first clip, opening to
reveal the second. In each iris effect, you can specify the center
point around which the opening is defined and feather the edges,
which blends the edges of the clips together and gives a diffused
iris.

Transition
Combines two images using the alpha channels of the images to
control the blending. It provides the standard alpha blending
options and can handle pre-multiplying by any color, although
white and black are most common and often run faster.
Channel Compositor
Combines two sources by replacing all the pixels of the first source
that are the specified color with the corresponding pixels of the
second source. This allows the second source to show through the
first. This appears to put the second clip behind the first clip and
make the selected color transparent.
Chroma Key
The second clip grows from a single point, expanding outward until
it entirely covers the first clip. The center point of the explosion is
defined in the effect parameters.
Explode
Uses a matte image to create a transition between two source
images. The transition from the first clip to the second clip occurs
first where the matte image is darkest, last where the matte image
is brightest.
