Does this make sense?

Does this make sense? How would you say it and which word would you use?

In a movie, when some scenes transitions to the next, at one point if you press pause you'll see both scenes dissolved/translucent one on top of the other.

Thank you

"dissolve" is the usual word for this effect. "you'll see one scene dissolving into the next" would be correct, but I can't see how to directly fit this into the sentence without making the whole thing sound too repetitious. "

"In a movie, if you press 'pause' while one scene is dissolving into the next, you will see two pictures superimposed."
