In film and video, the technique where words or images gradually become dimmer until they disappear is called what?

Explanation:
Fade out is the editing transition where the image or text slowly dims until it disappears, often ending on a black screen. It signals the end of a scene or a passage of time. This differs from a fade in (where something gradually appears from black), a cut (an abrupt switch with no transition), and a dissolve (a crossfade where one image fades out as another fades in).
