Light leak

Warm light bleeding in from the edge of the frame and drifting across it, in the brand's colours: for openings, transitions and a film feel over footage.

Render it

npx volito render effects/light-leak --out light-leak.mov

That writes ProRes 4444 with alpha, ready to drop over footage. The same item in another shape, brand or format:

volito render effects/light-leak --aspect 9:16 --style cobalt --out light-leak-9x16.mov
volito render effects/light-leak --format mp4 --out light-leak.mp4
volito still effects/light-leak --t 2 --out light-leak.png
volito info effects/light-leak     # every prop and part
volito add effects/light-leak      # copy its source into ./motion to edit

From Node:

import { findItem, renderVideo } from "volito";

await renderVideo(findItem("effects/light-leak"), { props: {}, out: "light-leak.mov" });

Or ask an agent with the MCP server connected: “Render the Volito light leak (effects/light-leak) in 9:16, in our brand.”

Film grain

Moving film grain and a soft vignette over footage: the grain re-rolls on every film frame, so it reads as real stock, not a still texture.

Glass card

A frosted glass card over soft moving colour: the ground blurs through the glass, a highlight runs along its edge, and the title sets on it.

Chromatic split

A title whose colour channels arrive apart and snap together, then split again on a hit: a lens-fringe look in the brand's two accents.

Liquid warp

A title that settles out of a liquid ripple: rolling noise bends the letters, eases off until they read clean, then keeps a slow shimmer.

Neon sign

A neon sign that flickers on: glass tubes of light in the accent with a glow around them, a buzz of flicker as it strikes, then a steady hum.
