### Step 1: Download and Install Avid Media Composer 8 if Needed.

If you haven't already, download the trial or purchase a full copy of Avid Media Composer 8 from 'Avid's official website'(https://www.avid.com/uk/media-composer). Follow the installation prompts to install both the main application and any additional components that may be required for your system architecture (32-bit or 64-bit).

### Step, 2: Download NewBlue Transitions 3 Ultimate

Once you have Avid Media Composer installed on your computer, navigate over to 'Newblue's official website'(https://www.newblueinc.com/) and download the trial version of New Blue FX transitions. Alternatively, if you're a registered user or own a license for this product, simply go straight to the downloads section where you can find both 32-bit & 64 bit versions.

### Step 3: Install Avid Media Composer Plug-in Manager

After downloading the setup file(s), locate it/them within your downloaded files folder and double-click on them one at a time. Follow through with any prompts that appear until prompted to choose where you'd like to install New Blue FX transitions plug-ins into – usually, this will be in: C:\Users'YourUsername'Documents\Plug-in folders\NewBlueFX

### Step 4: Launch Avid Media Composer and Install Newblue Transitions 3 Ultimate Plug-In

Once the installation process is complete, launch Avid media composer by double-clicking on its desktop icon (or locate it within your Start menu/ Applications folder depending upon what operating system you're using). Upon launching media composer for the first time after installing this new plug-in, a dialogue box should appear prompting whether or not to restart Media Composer so that these newly installed effects can be recognized – simply click 'Yes' and wait until all necessary components have finished loading.

### Step 5: Access Newblue Transitions within Avid Media Composer

Once the installation process is complete, you'll now see a new tab called 'Effects' appear at the top toolbar area of your media composer interface. Within this Effects palette, click on 'New Blue FX' and then navigate down through their drop-down menu until reaching for either “Transition” or “ transitions 3 ultimate,” depending upon which specific transition pack from Newblue you're looking to use within your current project.
