2For the cutting room
A user choice matters most when the answer is no transition at all. Most drama cuts straight, and a tool that adds effects by default changes the rhythm.

3Inside a generator's episode
The episode pipeline SceneMixer documents has its own answer to “Who chooses the transitions”; two lines from its pages:
Paste a scene or a short script and SceneMixer gives you a storyboard — numbered shots with framing and seconds — and then a moving version of each segment, which you can join into a rough cut of the scene.
SceneMixer, Using SceneMixer for Previs and Animatics Before a Live-Action Shoot (read 2026-10-13)
Every segment starts with a short header that sets the stage before the first shot: Location (a scene chip), Time, Weather, the Opening frame (what the first frame shows), Set dressing (what is in the room, and any background people) and Props (the objects the segment uses).
