About FootageCrate
FootageCrate is a web-based library of video visual effects (VFX) and motion graphics assets for video editing. Its homepage lists more than 10,000 assets, grouped into categories such as explosions, fire, lightning, smoke, debris, lens flares, and lower thirds. Assets are offered with transparent backgrounds so they can be dragged into a timeline and composited over footage. The site states that assets are available as ProRes, MP4, and PNG sequences, with video encoded at up to 4K resolution. It lists compatibility with Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Nuke, Final Cut Pro, and CapCut, on both Windows and Mac.
The site also offers plugins, including a Blender importer and the LaForge Suite of After Effects plugins, and tutorials on After Effects and Premiere Pro. The homepage does not state pricing, licensing terms, or whether each plugin is included in every plan. The footer and some plugin names refer to ProductionCrate, so the FootageCrate name appears alongside that brand.
