Frequently asked
What is the Assemble In animation?
Every piece of the icon flies in from its own direction, spinning as it comes, and locks into place with a springy stop. It belongs to the Icon Animations category on velements, where you edit it in the browser and download it as a finished video file.
What can you customize in Assemble In?
Every control in the editor, grouped the same way there. Content: icon. Style: background, icon color and stroke width. Layout: aspect ratio, icon size and position. Motion: duration and variation. Each change appears in the live preview straight away, and editing is free.
How long is Assemble In?
Assemble In runs 2 seconds by default, and you can set any length up to 15 seconds before you export. It plays once from start to finish, so it drops straight onto a cut or an opening.
Can you download Assemble In with a transparent background?
Yes. Set the background to Transparent, then export a PNG sequence for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or Figma: import the first frame as an image sequence and it drops onto a track above your footage with a straight alpha channel. Export WebM with a VP9 alpha channel for the web and for CapCut. MP4 has no alpha channel, so it keeps a solid color or image behind the animation.
Can you use Assemble In in commercial projects?
Yes. Each download comes with a perpetual commercial license in your name for client work, ads and products, and you may sell the edited clip on stock footage sites. Reselling the preset itself as an editable template is not allowed.

A bold badge bursts open with a shockwave ring and the icon pops on top. Great for success states.

A tight, fast rattle that dies away almost as soon as it starts. The short negative buzz of a blocked action.

Flip Y
2sThe icon turns on its vertical axis like a card, thinning to an edge and thickening as it comes back round to the front.

A soft band of light travels across the icon on a slow loop. Nothing moves; only the colour crossing it does.
